You are welcome to find the source code for the default input method editor, download it, create your own input method editor that has this replacement, ship your revised input method editor (in your app or in another app), and ask your users to switch to your input method editor. I project that 99% of your users will ignore you.

Otherwise, you have no control over the keys shown on an input method editor. Some input method editors do not have any keys (e.g., Graffiti using gestures). You can use android:inputType and related attributes as hints, but not all input method editors will honor them and they do not offer per-key flexibility.
