Simple expressions simply return .T. or .F.
However, you might invoke a UDF - which can be stored in the database stored procedures - which does the replace. I am not sure, though, whether this might generate an "illegal recursion" if you do it from a field validation. IIRC, something like this regularly happens when you try to pull the same trick from a trigger.
