No, because they will fire too late for you to queue the next buffer and get seamless playback.

You're going to have to schedule timeouts early anyway to maximise the chance that your callback runs in time to schedule the next buffer seamlessly, so accuracy doesn't matter, so using the audio clock instead of the system clock doesn't matter since there will be negligible drift over the intervals we're talking about.
