Not precisely; the best alternatives are oxycodone & hydromorphone in the US with the addition of the absolutely superb dipipanone (Diconal) in the UK. A 10mg average oxymorphone dose would require 30mg Diconal to give the equivalent analgesia.
Before changing to IR Oxycodone I took the 120mg Oxycontin twelve hourly but as its duration of action is only 6 or 8 hours at most, required rescue meds and dipipanone was by some way the most effective. I am looking for an oxymorphone IR 10mg source myself for a change of scenery but find it impossible to get from any US pharmacy sent over the water. My Texan friend tells me that it is the best analgesic she has ever had. On that basis, unless you have tolerance problems, I see no reason to change from that and the higher dosage instant hydromorphone available in the States. You could always try to find somewhere/someone in the UK who could provide Diconal, fast to act and very potent in the dosage I suggest.
