No so far as I know (though it can be done simply enough in elisp), but
as far as I can see, it's really not very important.

You could easily write an elisp function to split apart the composed
components to allow easier editing, e.g., by putting a space after the
base character (a user could then re-compose them by deleting the
space).  However given the shortness of such sequences in all but the
rarest cases, I expect most users simply wouldn't bother to use such a
function, and would probably just delete the accents and re-add them if
they were incorrect.
