No. Strangely enough it is a single gene that determines whether the asparagus produces smelly pee - so it is an inherited thing. Some people have the gene, some don't.

Why does pee smell so bad after you eat asperagus?

The distinctive smell of urine after eating asparagus is primarily due to the breakdown of asparagusic acid, which is found in the vegetable. When digested, asparagusic acid is converted into sulfur-containing compounds, such as methanethiol and dimethyl sulfide, which are responsible for the strong odor. Not everyone experiences this phenomenon, as the ability to smell these compounds varies among individuals due to genetic differences.
