No, but you also don't get to make a conscious decision about your personality or behavior, at least not as much as many people think. Your genes are actually the primary factor in your predisposition, not your upbringing or culture. Now, it's not completely deterministic of course, but you can make pretty good assumptions based on race and ethnicity alone.
Your ethnicity represents an evolutionary history though, which means it does correlate with behavior.
You don’t get to make a conscious decision about where or when or to whom you are born as an individual.

It would be a great honor to have you measure the bumps on my skull.
