Unfortunately, no. By that, Emacs may be able to decode the
file name corrrectly, but it doesn't remember the encoding
for the time it has to encode the file name.
I belive that Windows itself has a function to handle such a
file name consistently. So, I think the best is to make a
speical coding system, say windows-file-name, that works
only for Windows. It decodes file names into utf-8 sequence
(internal code of Emacs-Unicode), and encode file names into
locale encoding or utf-16le-with-signature depending on the
contents.
