That's only possible in MSHTML-based UAs.

for example
when I press on "×" (hebrew) the output will return as "t"..

var o = document.forms[0].elements[0];
o.onkeydown = function(e) {
if (e.keyCode == "V".charCodeAt(0)
&& !e.ctrlKey && !e.altKey && !e.metaKey)
{
this.value += e.shiftKey ? "X" : "x";
return false;
}

return true;
};

Works in Firefox 2 (only with enabled script support, of course).
Good luck for adapting this to your requirements.
