No, it’s not possible to allow Emojis within usernames. They aren’t considered a letter.

> By default Discourse permits letters ([Ll](https://www.compart.com/en/unicode/category/Ll) / [Lm](https://www.compart.com/en/unicode/category/Lm) / [Lo](https://www.compart.com/en/unicode/category/Lo) / [Lt](https://www.compart.com/en/unicode/category/Lt) / [Lu](https://www.compart.com/en/unicode/category/Lu)), marks ([Mc](https://www.compart.com/en/unicode/category/Mc), [Me](https://www.compart.com/en/unicode/category/Me), [Mn](https://www.compart.com/en/unicode/category/Mn)) and numbers ([Nd](https://www.compart.com/en/unicode/category/Nd), [Nl](https://www.compart.com/en/unicode/category/Nl), but _not_ [No](https://www.compart.com/en/unicode/category/No)). The setting can restrict those characters, but it’s not possible to allow additional characters.
