It is possible using NLS. Have a look at Section 2 - Translation - NLS Handling of Strings in 3BSE035980 (System 800xA AC 800M Configuration).

You cant. Use Hyphens (-), Underscores "_" or CamelCase instead.
Spaces are not allowed in condition names. If at some time in the furture you want to use an alarm management package from a third party vendor, or do some other things with external alarm handling, those spaces could cause you trouble when you try to parse the alarm message string.

I hope the attached snapshot helps... The Alarm and Event Translator aspect asks for a prefix the first time you add an ID. You may set this to NLS_ or else or leave it blank to save space in condition name (limited with 5 char). You may prefer to put the aspect in Workplace Structure as well.
