Not necessarily, sometimes the accents just develop as the person learns the language.

Case point, I’m learning Farsi as a second language, yet all the Iranians think it’s hilarious that I’ve naturally adopted an Afghani accent. I’ve never actually heard an Afghani accent so I have no idea how I’ve got one, it’s just the way my vocal cords have naturally settled on pronouncing Farsi words.
