Not as far as I know. Horizontal Expansion works on the X and Y together.
What brand of printer are we talking about? My Creality machine can be calibrated by adjusting the steps/mm of the various axes. I don't know about the Ultimaker's but I think calibration is handled differently.
The formula for an adjustment would be Anticipated Measurement / Actual Measurement * Current Steps/mm = New Steps/mm. The new number gets entered and saved in the printer.
FYI - Unlike the Esteps/mm adjusting the XYZ steps/mm isn't something that is usually needed.

In the Cura 5.8 stable release, everyone can now tune their Z seams to look better than ever. Method series users get access to new material profiles, and the base Method model now has a printer profile, meaning the whole Method series is now supported in Cura!
