Unfortunately not. You can't enter Unicode codepoints that way. And even 
if it were possible, it wouldn't solve the other issues.

Alt+NNN (first N non-zero) will enter char with the typed code from the 
current DOS codepage, e.g. DOS850. For example, in my case, typing 
Alt+200 enters '╚'. And NNN is interpreted modulo 256, i.e. Alt+2000 
enters ð, whose code is 208 in DOS850.

Alt+0NNN will enter char with the typed code from the current Windows 
codepage, e.g. WIN1252, again modulo256. For example, in my case, typing 
Alt+02000 enters Ð, whose code is 208 in WIN1252.
