No. Jitter is usually considered an issue on the playback, but I suppose ADCs could also have it.
Read up on the mastering process. You start from raw recordings, with coughs, spits, excess breathing... and multiple tracks and boil it down to the record.
There’s also a final mastering step, where 2 tracks are adjusted based on particulars of an audience or LP master cutting lathe
A "re-master" can often be quite trendy, adjusting for changes in listener and speaker preferences over the years.
Here is a shorter, fun version to learn about the re-mastering done to "Kind of Blue"
