Right now this is not possible. The language-support packages are just
empty metapackages which depend on appropriate packages.

Also, Ubuntu's goal is to render all fonts correctly in all locales,
so it should just work right out of the box.

Thirdly, globally reconfiguring fonts for particular languages does
not work in multi-user environments if users prefer different
languages, etc.
