We can find nothing in the literature to support an affirmative answer to your question. Since all chemotherapy drugs are essentially poisons, it is quite possible that isotretinoin could affect the liver's metabolic function in a variety of ways, especially since it is a derivative of Vitamin A.
Since alcohol is also a poison that affects the liver, we would suggest discussing this issue with your physician. It is never a good idea to mix drugs, especially powerful drugs like these two.

methanol gets converted to formaldehyde in the liver by an enzyme called alcohol dehydrogenase. This is an oxidative reaction requiring the cofactor NAD+ which gets converted (reduced) to NADH. The reaction can also occur without alcohol dehydrogenase in microsome of a cell. In this case cytochrome P4502E1 is the enzyme and the redox agent is NADPH which gets converted (oxidized) to NADP.
