No. The function of prop-pitch to keep the engine rpm in its limits. Anyway, the accelerating - decelerating effect much slower, than engine throttle.
Stay calm in formation flying. Move the stick and the throttle gently, and wait for its effect (and give a thought to it, that what you do, the effect will be little late).
