Nope - each day you get a new allowance.
Anything unused is 'lost'.
Remember that the whole idea is to eat less and so to lose weight - so it is not really a 'loss'0 -
I'm not sure if it's true for all phones but on android phones if you have the app downloaded you can see your weekly allowance of calories. Basically any "unused" calories from today, and all the previous days of the week, will be counted in your remaining calories for the week which is basically what you're asking.0

I make sure my calories average under for the week, not day by day, on the days I exercise I 'leave' some calories and eat more the next day.0

I like to keep an eye on my weekly calorie goal as well as my daily one, if I am at a larger then normal deficit at the end of the week I have whatever it was I might have been craving or simply watch myself a little less closely. Now this is not a day or two of eating Crazy but one meal, drink, afters and/or snack type thing or not being bothered about the exact weight an measure of the jacket potato I had at the café. Some people will say this defeats the purpose and of course they are entitled to their opinion it works for them but this works for me.0
