Not really. Astringents do not balance oil levels in the same way and instead will often dry out the skin completely.
An astringent causes tissue contraction and is used after shaving to reduce the effect of cuts on the skin. improve.Skin.String tents are mostly alcohol-based, and while they also reduce oil on the skin, they can be harsh on sensitive skin types. I generally don’t recommend an astringent except as an aftershave.
