My guess is no based on this:

I purchase my ticket in a different currency, how will award miles and EQDs be determined?

The base fare and carrier-imposed surcharges will be converted to USD (based on the 5-day IATA rate on the date the ticket was issued) and this amount will be awarded as your award miles and EQDs.
