Referencing different objects in VF email templates

Hello,
I am wondering if it is possible to cross-reference a different object inside a VisualForce email template, other than what the template was originally set up as. For example, if I create a VF Email template related to the opportunity, I can reference opportunity fields fine. However, if I need to reference something under the Account object, I have been unable to find a way to do so. Is this possible?

More information:
relatedToType="Opportunity"

{!relatedTo.OpportunityField__c} = works
{!Account.ebp_account_name__c} = does not work
Any help or insight would be appreciated greatly!
