When there is something that my wife and I do not agree upon she will bring this up in the bedroom and will try to make me conform to her will. Is it acceptable for a wife to use the sexual need of her husband as leverage to prevail in a disagreement?

I guess not.
However, keep in mind that, for a long time, and often still today, women have had less power (financial power, social power, etc) and so one this is of the main means of leverage women have had in order to get what they want or need. So it is nice to be sympathetic to that.
Also, at least it sounds like you are having a good and regular relationship with each other, which is something to appreciate, especially since it strengthens the marriage, whereas some married couples are not able to have a satisfying conjugal relationship.
Perhaps some others will offer some advice. :)
