sure they are - the conveyor velocity simply accelerates instantaneously with the wheel's tangential velocity.
but as Patrick said, these accelerations have absolutely nothing to do with the forward acceleration of the plane.

But if there is any tangential velocity of the wheel with respect to the conveyor belt, doesn't that mean that they are operating at different speeds?
