    Yes.
    Same way you add them in BGEE / BGIIEE.

    - Extract the soundset you want to use with any of a number of tools from BG2 (NI, DLTCEP, WinBIFF, etc)
    - Rename the next to the last character to 7. ie: FEMALE2A becomes FEMALE7A
    - Do this for the entire series of sounds A-Z
    - Drop into your \Data\00766\lang\en_US\sounds (or whichever language folder your game uses)
    - Start up the game -> Character Record page -> Customize -> Sounds -> Select FEMALE7 -> Done -> Done
    - Done!

    A lot of the sound files for BG2 aren't used for IWDEE, or sometimes the sounds may be labeled incorrectly for use in IWDEE. A few weeks ago I started a thread about how to create custom soundsets by just dropping wav files to the "sounds" folder. You can find the thread here: http://forum.baldursgate.com/discussion/37191/how-to-install-custom-soundsets-the-easy-way-custom-soundsets-included-now-with-subtitles

    In that thread I even compiled several custom soundsets - with working subtitles that will show in the game's dialog box - to download. Feel free to download them and check them out for yourself. Eventually I plan to make compatible soundsets and subtitles for every BG1 and BG2 character.
