No:
xof=# create database test encoding=ucs_basic;
ERROR: ucs_basic is not a valid encoding name
LINE 1: create database test encoding=ucs_basic;

Although that's not too surprising; it's a UTF-8 collation, not an encoding as such. Experimenting with the various other CREATE DATABASE parameters hasn't gotten me any farther.
