I'll have to check to see exactly what can be defined, but it's not
all of them.  You can, however, define it as an accelerator.  Try this:

include 'stdconst.e'

defc try =
   universal activeaccel
   buildacceltable activeaccel, 'sayerror a_Umlaut', AF_CHAR, 132, 12345
   activateacceltable  activeaccel
