No, but for a given bow with a given design, material, and weight there's a maximum amount of energy that it can give to a projectile. For a crossbow that is going to be the same every time, the amount stored when it is cocked. For a bow it could be less if you're incapable of fully drawing it, but then you probably should be suffering the usual penalties for a weapon you're not strong enough to use.
