That depends on what you mean by "accessible". It may well be WCAG-compliant (as long as the role is not conveyed as being a table), but you would need to do user testing to find out whether it is an acceptable user experience in practice. My experience of user testing is that participants usually have difficulty with date pickers, especially ones that use "application mode". If possible, allow people to type the date because that is much faster and user friendly.
