No. The variable determines the field from which the data is drawn.

The report options Places tab does include a selection to use the
abbreviation rather than the full field text for states/provinces. If that
option is used, TX will be used rather than Texas (assuming that the State
field contained "Texas".

Report options / Places tab / 'Abbreviate states/provinces in the output'
