Not in general, but what I described is how the regex mapper works and
how it is documented to work.  The target file name is constructed from
the to pattern exclusively.  Any not-matched part of the file name or
any part not explicitly added to the target file name via group
references will be ignored.

This may not be what you expected, but it is how the mapper works.
