judging by the one i saw yesterday at the newark and notts agricultural show i would say not, but if you contact a bonsai specialist dealer they will give you all the info even if yours is not a bonsai specimin
anyone being picky will note i did not spell specimien correctly !! blame the wine and a sleepless 19 month old !
Japanese Maple is a very easy tree to maintain. It is very adaptable to most soil types although prefers rich moist soil with some shade. If grown in a tub it prefers uniform watering, whether small or large amounts. Usually grows to between 6 and 10 feet high, although some can grow to 25 ft. For loads of info just Google search for "japanese maple care".
Some Acers are more frost tolerant then others - when they are budding you may need to protect them in hard frosts (check name against a plant database). Plus some can get wind burn so make sure they are not too exposed!
