There are ARIA attributes which let you customize the advertised meaning/intent of an element, but there is nothing to, say, mark that a particular location on the page should be considered a button. As far as I'm aware, this matches how Android, Windows, iOS, etc work.

There are so many parts that go into the accessibility of an element, handling tab index, handling keyboard input, handling screenreaders, spoken voice prompting, etc, that a custom solution usually ends up being detrimental to the user's experience.
