No, you cannot. Baking soda and baking powder (which is just baking soda, a filler and an activating acid) are both designed to rise during the baking process and are chemical reactions that are relatively instant. Yeast, on the other hand, takes some time to rise because it is dependent on the action of a fungus. Yeast, in fact, would be killed by the heat of baking and would not rise at all.
Yeast, therefore, is used to raise breads and buns by allowing them to sit usually for several hours before baking. Sodas are used to raise pastries, muffins, etc. more or less instantly during baking.
Answer
You can't just substitute yeast for the other ingredients, since yeast needs sugar, lard and liquid to be activated. Find a recipe that calls for yeast instead of amending your baking soda/baking powder recipe. Also, for cakes, yeast would give you a fluffier, softer texture which would not be suitable for layers.

How can I make bread using baking powder instead of yeast?
To make bread using baking powder instead of yeast, you can use a recipe that includes baking powder as a leavening agent. Baking powder helps the bread rise without the need for yeast. Simply mix the baking powder with the dry ingredients, then add the wet ingredients and bake the bread according to the recipe instructions.
What is the effect of yeast and sugar solution?
When yeast is added to a sugar solution, the yeast ferments the sugar to produce carbon dioxide gas and alcohol. This process is used in baking to make bread rise and in brewing to make alcohol.
What are cells that perform fermation and make alcohol are?
Cells that perform fermentation and produce alcohol are typically yeast cells. Yeast cells break down sugars through the process of fermentation, producing alcohol as a byproduct. This process is commonly used in brewing and baking.
Does yeast yeast produce?
-- carbon dioxide -- alcohol, if not attended to -- spores to make more yeast, if properly cared for
How can I make a delicious focaccia without using yeast?
You can make a delicious focaccia without using yeast by using baking powder or baking soda as a leavening agent instead. These ingredients will help the dough rise and create a light and fluffy texture similar to traditional yeast-based focaccia.
What is the role of the yeast?
The various kinds of yeasts are used in the brewing of beers and in wine making for the production of alcohol and carbon dioxide. The carbon dioxide is especially important in baking and bread making to make the bread dough rise before baking.
What is quick bread and how is it different from yeast bread?
Quick bread is a type of bread that is leavened with baking powder or baking soda instead of yeast. It is called "quick" because it does not require the time-consuming process of proofing and rising that yeast bread does. This makes quick breads faster and easier to make.
How can you make ether alcohol?
First of all, ether and alcohol are two separate things. I think you are asking how to make ETHYL alcohol. Most alcohol production is a by-product of natural processes, such as the growth of yeast in a barley/hops mix. You take a large vat of this mix and introduce yeast. The yeast grow and multiply, producing alcohol in the process. You then strain out the mush and are left with a delicious concoction of alcohol and flavored water. If you want it stronger, you distill it. But why you would want to make Ethyl alcohol instead of delicious, nutritious beer, I have no idea....
What is the purpose of adding yeast in making vinegar?
Yeast is not typically added to make vinegar. Instead, vinegar is made through a two-step fermentation process. First, yeast converts sugars into alcohol. Then, acetic acid bacteria (such as Acetobacter) convert the alcohol into acetic acid, which is vinegar.
