I don't know of any way to do that with a single emacs session. OTOH, if you are willing to use a different emacs for the German document, then starting a new emacs with $ LANG=de_DE.utf8 emacs and adding some calendar customizations to your init file (see https://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/CalendarLocalization#toc10 for details) should be enough. The agenda uses calendar functions to display dates (hence the need for calendar customization), but org-datetree uses format-time-string which (AFAICT) requires the different locale. -- Nick
