No. There is nothing different about the guitar sounds for the software to tell which sound is guitar and which which sounds are the other instruments.

The Vocal Removal Tool can work because the singer is in the exact center of a stereo show. That's what is special about the singer compared to the instruments. Many people think even that tool is not so good because if the drums are in the middle, they go away, too.

If the guitar is in the exact center of a stereo show, you can use the Vocal Removal Tool to destroy the guitar, but not to destroy everything else. All of these tools also turn a stereo show into a mono show, so sometimes that isn't so good.

This question is asked many times.
