Yes -- but the advantage is, once you have done so your OS tools can
use the locales as well, not just PostgreSQL.
I don't recall your mentioning what operating system you are using,
but I suspect you want to check out localedef(1). If that command
isn't known to your OS try checking the "SEE ALSO" section of the
setlocale(3) manual page for references.
It's over a decade since I built a locale so I won't offer further
advice, except to say that it wasn't especially hard even that long
ago. :-)
