    Yes, that's exactly correct in the second case. In the first case, it is acting as a preposition meaning "in the role of".

    As a married man, he has to think of his family.OR Since he is a married man, he has to think of his family.
    Or Since he is married, he has to think of his family.
    OR He has to think of his family because he is married.
