Regardless of their sexuality, they are still men despite their attraction inclined to the same sex/gender. So the answer would be no.

Hadith and common fiqh only knows men and women. No difference is made between Eunuchs and men in general; even people born with two sexes tend to be gendered, see here.

For the role and the rules in society, no difference is made between heterosexual men and gays.
