Is it possible?  Absolutely.  People have been writing computer programs
for half a century to transliterate between Latin and Cyrillic.  Why not
Latin and Osmanya?

It's highly unlikely that such a program already exists, however,
considering that Osmanya has been formally in Unicode for only a few
months.
