I think ACA500 could be adopted to A2000. The A500 expansion slot is almost the same as ZORRO slot on A2000.
I'm not sure if A2000 can take accelerator cards on ZORRO slots, because that is what the CPU slot is for. It's possible that some signals are not present in ZORRO slot that are on A500 exp slot. I would have to check the schematics.

Something to think about...
A500 KS 2.1, 1MB Chip, 68000
A600 KS 3.1, 2MB Chip, ACA630 32MB RAM
A1000 KS 1.3, 8MB RAM
A1200 KS 3.1, Blizzard IV 50MHz 64MB RAM
A2000 KS 2.1, 68030 25MHz, 6MB RAM
A3000 KS 3.1, 68030 25MHz, 16MB RAM
A4000 KS 3.0, 68040 25MHz, 16MB RAM
CDTV KS 3.1, 4MB RAM

I made a comparison spreadsheet and compared the ZORRO-A500-CPUslot.
Looks like A500 exp slot is about 90% same to the A2000 CPU slot, only 6pins are not matching, all other are pin for pin the same.
So A500 exp conn IS A2000 CPU slot.
