No, but Activision has a longstanding partnership with LucasArts as their distributor for European territories. I believe the agreement gives Activision a certain degree of freedom with the LEC catalog, which would explain why just about every retail release of an LEC adventure game in the past ten years wasn't enjoyed by North America - Activision can put out a Monkey Island release in the UK if they see fit, while it would be up to LucasArts itself to handle a re-release stateside.
