No. Cornstarch is a thickening agent as where flour is used to create some type of dough or batter and when it is baked the gluten allows it to expand and get nice and fluffy. Simply put, if you swapped flour for cornstarch, especially for a cheesecake, you would have a nasty mess and a very uneasy cheesecake. Hope that helps
