Mm...no, it's pretty hard. You'd have to override the stencil to add a white box underneath the hyphen and then make sure to adjust its position if it moves up or down because of its new vertical extent. The white-out is applied directly to the stencil very late in the grob-making game, so fiddling with Y-extent doesn't cut it.
