Not that I'm aware of, but just tab or shift-tab to the other column.
A negative credit is a positive debit and vice versa. If you try
entering a negative, you'll see GnuCash moves it to the other column
as a positive anyway.

I have a number of program that accept negative numbers
with the minus sign at the end `123.45-` or inside
parenthesis `(123.56)`.
Is there a way to tell GnuCash to do this also? I
keep entering it the other way and having to go back
and put the minus sign in the front.

Both were duplicates of four year or more old bugs.
Shades of Libre Office and Wine. User input
is ignored unless you can pony up. This is sad.
But it is the open source model. Give the code away
for free and charge for maintenance
There is no "pony up".
GnuCash is a *gift* of tens of thousands of hours work by a few dozen *unpaid*
individuals over 20 years. All of the people on this list who have helped you are also
unpaid volunteers. All of the infrastructure is provided and supported by volunteers who
also donate the power and connectivity to keep the servers running and usable. While
donations to the "tip jar" are surely welcome--and paid for a new server last
year--the only solicitation is a link on the web page.

You ever get a letter from Red hat or Wine or Libre
Office explaining that you need to "hire" them to
get your bugs fixed? This is the open source model.
Open source is not a free lunch.
Individuals can never afford to put their developers
on the payroll. They want a whole lot more that a
tip jar too. And they do seriously deserve to be
paid for what they do. They ARE providing a service.
Lets hope Gnu Cash's developers are a little more
responsive to requests from underfunded users in
the future. Or at least tag requests over a year
old as "won't fix" so folks will quit asking for it.
