Yes. That's completely standard outside of the US and a few STRUT/schwa-merging regions in, from memory, mid-north-ish England.

My difference between the two is enable /əˈneɪbəl/ [ɘ̃ːˈne̞ːbɯ(ː)]~[n̩ːˈne̞ːbɯ(ː)] versus unable /ˌʌnˈeɪbəl/ [ˌʌ̃ːɾ̃ˈe̞ːbɯ(ː)].

Re: English questions
My unable appears to contain [ʌ] - at least, it seems to be my STRUT vowel, which in my case is definitely centralized, not back, similar to my schwa - but the first vowel in my enable is definitely farther forward than [ə]; it moves toward [ɛ] in careful speech and toward the center in rapid speech, but still more fronted than my schwa.
