Yes, there is: use nil for the FONT-SPEC argument.  But AFAIU, that's
not what was requested, since doing that will always display those
characters as boxes with hex code.  What was requested is to have a
feature that will disable the use of just one specific font for a
particular range of characters, thereby forcing Emacs to use some
other font for that range.
