Sometimes, but not always. If your teacher says "You were to have done your homework yesterday", the meaning is similar to "You should have done your homework yesterday." If your father says "You were to have done your chores this morning", the meaning is similar to "You should have done your chores this morning." They are similar, but not exactly the same. There are situations where one makes more sense than the other. Good luck!
