I would make the data schema design the same or consistent regardless of the language. Anytime you introduce a special case to your design you really complicate the supporting code for reading, writing and displaying the data. You'll end up doing all kinds of conditional checking for that one special case.
So the direct answer to your question is yes it can be done, but the how to do it is going to unnecessarily complicate the code. And from a users stand point they won't see or appreciate the more complex design because from their point of view both designs would be viewed the same. If you need a default language make this a site setting not a hard design structure in the schema.
