In general no, because a single Unicode character can
belong to more than one script (e.g. to Chinese Han and
also to Japanese Kanji, and also even to Korean; this is
the "CJK Unification" that was a controversial part of
Unicode).

You may find the gucharmap code useful, though, or the
W3C Internationalisation pages (www.w3.org/International/)
or www.Unicode.org.
