I doubt it. You voluntarily asked for a seat re-assignment. If AC had moved you due to a missed connection, or you had to change planes due to a equipment/schedule change, then you would definitely be entitled to a refund.
That being said, it never hurts to ask. The worst that happens is they say no.
