No, except you configure a user tool with the command del "%f" and run this user tool from within the macro with the command RunTool "case-sensitive name of the tool". If the macro does nothing else and you just want a command to delete the active file - see File - Special Functions - Delete Active File which can be quickly executed with an associated hotkey. I use for example Alt+Del.
