NO sorry to say, but that's not possible.
Exchange 2007/2010 thinks that is an invalid character. Only A-Z, a-z and 0-9 is allowd in the domain name.

Hi,
If you want to rename the domain name, we can use Rendom utility which has been installed on Windows 2008. It is already installed as part of "Active Directory Domain Services" role.
Location: %windir%\system32\rendom.exe
