Not really.  You can remap the control key or the letter keys, but not a combo 
like that.

However, you're asking the wrong question, and I think I know what you mean.  
In KDE at least, you can go into the global key shortcuts, and set copy and 
paste to use a different key combination (so you could map them to ctrl-1 and 
ctrl-2 for example).  Hopefully GNOME has something similar, but I wouldn't 
be surprised if it didn't :(
