The answer is probably yes, but I think that would be meaningless because [currently identifiers cannot start with `_`](https://heycam.github.io/webidl/#idl-names):
   >The identifier of any of the abovementioned IDL constructs must not be "constructor", "toString", or begin with a U+005F LOW LINE ("_") character. These are known as reserved identifiers.
