Does Truffle support making a programming language in a new character set?

This is with reference to this question. My understanding is that, “if we have all the characters in any arbitrary character-set encoded as 16-bit unsigned integers, then Truffle can handle it”. But it is not documented whether or not this is indeed the case.

That is, if I want to implement a new programming language in a character set which is neither Unicode nor ASCII, like EBCDIC, or TRON or something entirely new, can that be done in Graal & Truffle?
