No. JS objects are associative arrays. There is no first or second
property. This is true for arrays as well. In JS v[0] is the same as
v["0"].

If you want a two element Float32Array and access its 0 and 1 element
as x and y, then maybe this could eventually be achieved with a class
helper or an advanced record.
