I don't know if it will work always but Yes you can.This is what i did, first of all you will have to have the font file in the project folder and then in your code apply font to the field that displays the text as follows 

FontManager.getInstance().load("hindifont.TTF", "MyFont", FontManager.APPLICATION_FONT) ;
    {
      try 
      {
        FontFamily typeface = FontFamily.forName("MyFont");
        Font myFont = typeface.getFont(Font.PLAIN, 19);
        yourfield.setFont(myFont);
        add(yourfield);
      } 
      catch (ClassNotFoundException ex) 
      {
         ex.printStackTrace();
      }   
    }

you can also retrieve from sqlite db if it has a supporting text.
