No. OpenType can be composed from TrueType or PostScript. Even if it  
is TrueType, OpenType has a lot more useful information in tables.  
Small Caps, old time digits, alternative glyphs ... cannot be encoded  
in Unicode. The option you have, is to put this into PUA, Private Use  
Area. But then TeX or an editor needs to know about that ...  
independently whether this wealth is PostScript or TrueType based.
