They're different letters, so you wouldn't be able to achieve this afaik unless you create a list of the possible options.
So for that kind of task, without telling the computer differently, "Jose" is different from "José" in the same way "Cars" is different from "Card". The only two real options I can see is to create a many to one and one to many listing relationship for some words (jose should select jose and josé), which is a bad way to go, or to strip accents and use regular letters, so replace all "é" with "e" when doing the string comparisons, which is a better way to go.
