Some keyboard layouts don't have all the basic Latin letters becaues their language don't need it (e.g. it may only have one of Q or K, but no C, or it may have no W, or some letters may be holding combined diacritics or could be ligatures, but usuall the basic Latin letter is still accessible by pressing another control key or by switching the layout mode. On non Latin keyboard layouts there's much more freedom, and CTRL+A may be localized according to the main base letter assigned to the key (the position of Latin letter is not always visible). On tactile layouts you cannot guess where CTRL+Latin letter is located, actually it may be accessible very differently on a separate layout for controls, where they will be translated: the CTRL key is not necessarily present, replaced usually by a single key for input mode selection (which may be switching languages, or to emojis, or to symbols/punctuations/digits)... The problematic control keys are those like "CTRL+[" (assuming ASCII as the base layout) where "[" is not present or mapped very differently. As well "CTRL+1"..."CTRL+0" may conflict with the assignment of ASCII controls like "CTRL+[". So yes all control keys are potentially localisable to work best with the base layout anre remaining mnemonic; but the physical key position may be very different.
