No, it isn't ;)
You have to prepare a suited codecvt facet, able to convert during I/O
from/to
you internal ("in memory") type (unsigned char) to the external ("on
disk") type
(char): unfortunately, there is no such as thing as a "general" codecvt...
I suggest taking inspiration from the snippet present in our testsuite,
in particular:
testsuite/27_io/basic_filebuf/seekoff/wchar_t/12790*.cc
+ testsuite_character.h
