Yes.  To convert that to the Mule codepoint, use this:

   (make-char 'hebrew-iso8859-9 (- ?\375 128))

See the mail by Takahashi-san.  Note that you will need to use 
decode-char to convert to the mule-unicode-0100-24ff codepoints.

I don't recomment using the latter: it's not a good idea to mix two 
different charsets in Emacs.  If you use hebrew-iso8859-8 charset, stick 
to it all the way.  If you want to use the Unicode characters, stick to 
them, but then your current code should be rewritten a bit (the tables, 
mostly).
