It doesn't look like they do. When you search for "propane tanks" "air valves" (both quoted), the low number of results suggests they don't go together.
A propane valve is slightly different than the valve for a standard air tank. They are known as OPD valves and will only allow gas to escape when the valve is connected to a hose or appliance. This is accomplished by a second internal vlave that must be depressed before gas will flow. Valves for non-flammable gas don't generally have this feature.

Who knows about truck air brake solenoids?
The solenoids aren't in the brakes themselves... they're attached to various valves... ABS and EBS valves, namely.

Is it OK to replace hotcold valves for laundry washer with Comp Boiler Drain valves?
YUP Just make sure there is an air gap in the washing machine
What is the function of a relay valve or splitter valve in an air brake system?
Relay valves are used to reduce the lag time when the brakes are applied, and when they are released. They are remote controlled air valves that respond to a con trol signal from the foot valve. They are usually mount ed on a frame rail close to the air chambers that they are to operate.
Why do semi trucks have two air tanks?
You have a primary and secondary tank. Certain air functions of the truck use the primary and others use the secondary tank.
What is the cause of air brake leakage?
Faulty air lines, faulty valves, faulty brake chambers, faulty pop off valves on the air tanks
What equipment did the hot air balloon carry?
It carries propane tanks[inside] of the wicker baskets.
Do all propane tanks have a relief valve?
Propane tanks are required to have a safety relief valve. The relief valve is a safety device on the propane tank to vent excess pressure.
How Does a Propane Tank Work?
Propane fuel comes in either a liquid or gas form, and is used to power engines, gas torches, barbecue grills, portable stoves, and residential heating. You are probably most familiar with propane in tanks. Propane tanks are used for fuel in cooking on grills or camping stoves. The tank is normally 4.73 gallons, and is often referred to as a barbecue tank. The propane tank works by way of an attached metering nozzle device. Some rural homes or farms use larger propane tanks that are periodically refilled by propane-delivery trucks. These are common to homes or farms without convenient access to other energy sources. Larger residential propane tanks can be used to fuel furnaces, cooking stoves, water heaters, laundry dryers, grain dryers, and various heat-producing appliances around the home. Propane containers hold propane in its liquid form. Tanks use a series of standardized valves. These valves work together to ensure proper propane maintenance. The valves on a propane tank include a • Fill valve, which is used for attaching a delivery hose and refilling the propane tank. • Vapor return valve that functions to normalize pressure within the tank during propane delivery. • Service valve, which changes liquid gas propane into a vapor. • Relief valve that is used to release excess pressure and prevent volatile reactions. • Liquid withdraw valve, which controls the amount of LP gas that is released from the propane tank. In addition to these valves, two types of standardized gauges are essential to proper tank operation. A float gauge measures the amount of propane in the tank and a fixed liquid level gauge indicates when the propane level exceeds 80% of the tank’s total volume. Propane tank installation is a licensed trade, and only skilled individuals may install a propane storage tank. Professional propane workers ensure compliance with state regulations and safety to propane tank users. For larger tanks, a crane is often used for installing the propane container. A propane delivery driver will periodically return and refill a propane tank as it is needed. In addition, the driver is needed to recertify the tank for safety every 5 years, and to check environmental hazards.
Why are propane tanks rated for water capacity?
water capacity accurately describes the tank total capacity
Are forklift propane tanks and BBQ propane tanks interchangeable?
No. Forklift LPG tanks have a dip tube to draw off liquid. Propane engines feed off of propane liquid, and turn them into gasses through an internal engine component. While your traditional propane BBQ grill will feed off of vapors from the propane. Of course if you could change the valves this would be somewhat fixed, though you will be hard pressed to find a propane dealer to fill it. But the correct safety equipment would be in place to fill it (i.e. Fixed Liquid Level gauge). Replacing the valve and keeping the cylinder the upright position would allow you to use it, but by then it is basically going to cost you more than it's worth.
Should you release air out of air tanks on trucks when its cold?
Yes Where I work if the tanks aren't drained before you go home you will be punished. Water can build up in the tanks, especially in cold weather and valves will freeze and everything grinds to a halt.
Where should propane tanks be stored?
It is recommended that propane tanks should never be stored inside a home or garage. Propane tanks should be kept standing upright in well ventilated areas, near no flammable substances or materials.
On the air brake system of a semitruck with pull trailer does the air pressure maintain itself if the petcock on the wet tank is fully opened?
Yes, you still have your primary and secondary air tank.
What will happen if you smoke by a propane tank?
In normal circumstances, nothing will happen. Gas tanks are designed and built to prevent leakage so there should be no propane in the air around the tank. In the event that the tank becomes faulty or the valve is opened to let propane escape into the air, there is a risk of explosion triggered by cigarettes, other flames or a spark.
What type of steel are propane tanks made from?
Stainless Steel :)
What are the three essential parts of a hot air balloon?
I can only think of three parts at all! The gondola, the envelope (balloon) and the heat source. and the propane tanks
