No, that's the point of the custom property sets.
They act like vocabulary switchers.
So you can have

setProp myUniqueName pValue
  add 1 to pValue
  set the myUniqueName of me to pValue
end myUniqueName

in one custom property set and
 
setProp myUniqueName pValue
  set the myUniqueName of me to "$" & (pValue / 100)
end myUniqueName

in another custom property set
and then use whichever is appropriate at the time.
It's a very powerful tool once you get the hang of it.
