No. As Homer (possibly not even one person) was the author* of The Iliad and Achilles is a character in the poem (or if he was a real person, his character would have probably been sourced from many different people and exaggerated.. The Iliad was written down by Homer in the 8th Century BCE (although Homer's birth date is disputed) and the fall of Troy is told to have been around the dates of 1330s-1130s BCE. *Homer is credited as being the author of the Iliad, when in fact he only wrote it down. He did not make up the story, it had been around for years before Homer.
Helen of troy was a key character in the Homer's epic poem ''iliad'' which describes the Trojan war. Its possible that it was (basicaly) a true story.

It is Ironic in the end of the story, that Miss Emily Grierson. High aristocratic "southern Belle" would stoop so low as to murder her lover Homer Barron. Throughout the story you do not expect that after Emily's death the townspeople will find Homer's body laying in a bed where it has been for the last forty years. The way the story is told is that Homer had left Emily, so it is shocking to find that he has been murdered by Miss Emily.
