Depends on how you define Newtonian mechanics, I suppose. An accelerating
reference frame is perfectly valid and analyzable, and to do that you
start with Newton's mechanics. But in an accelerated reference frame the
basis vectors have a time dependence, and you have to remember to take
those derivatives, too.
