No, that is not possible. A file always has only one code page.
If you want the compiler not to interpret any of the character literals, you
can do so by not using any {$codepage xxx} directive (and not including any BOM
either). Then you can save the file in your editor using any code page you
want, and the compiler will treat the characters as sequences of byte literals.
