No, it will only make it worse, because the inhaler will raise your heart rate, open your airways and increase your blood pressure.

Why breathe into bag when having a panic attack?
When someone hyperventilates (over breathing), although it may feel to that person as if they are not getting enough oxygen, this is not true. They are getting enough oxygen, but breathing out too much Carbon Dioxide, upsetting the normal body chemistry and causing some unpleasant side effects. The theory behind breathing into a paper bag is to breathe back in some of the excessive amounts of carbon dioxide being breathed out, but this should only be used if certain that the over breathing is only caused by anxiety/stress. Hyperventilation can occur as a result of underlying medical problems, and if this is the case, breathing into a paper bag can make the condition worse. A person should also only use the bag for short periods, alternating between breathing with the bag for about 10 seconds and then without for 15 seconds. However, there is conflicting views over the use of a paper bag and many sources say that it is no longer recommended. The best way to help a person who is hyperventilating is to calm them down. This can be done by getting them to count from 100 backwards or talking about something trivial that will take their mind off their panic, but not make them more stressed. This also works as it is very difficult to hyperventilate and talk at the same time! Concentrating on breathing patterns will also help, a person who is hyperventilating will usually breathe in quickly and sharply and not spend enough time breathing out, so forcing themselves to slow their breathing down and concentrate on long exhalation will help. If you are with a person who is hyperventilating be kind but firm - make them talk to you and control their breathing, counting with them while they breathe can also help (breathe in for 3 counts and out for 4 etc)
