No, it can't. "Dragonewt" and "Salamander" refer to drastically different mythical creatures. While a salamander is based on the mistaken belief that real life salamanders have some kind of fire resistant property to them and then amplified to fantasy setting proportions, a Dragonewt is one of the terms that can refer to a half-human half-dragon mix, generally leaning much more towards the dragon side. The myths of the salamander have been around since medieval times, when fire resistant cloth was sold as "salamander wool" despite salamanders not actually having any fleece. Dragonewts are a more modern fantasy staple, and generally interchangeable with Dragonkin, Half-Dragons, and other dragon-human hybrids.
