    In some cases also can classify as homophones.

    Nope, it’s bull, homophones and heteronyms go to different bars.

      Then they wouldn’t be heteronyms.

      If by “cases” you mean accent, then that’s certainly a possibility.

        I Misunderstood what heteronyms where supposed to be.

        Yep, pretty much opposite of what homophones are.
