No, unfortunately not.
I verified that CHARFORMAT is effective by also applying some character formatting to the "R" character of REF. Style is correctly used, but language does not change.
I have also tried exchanging REF by PAGEREF - same behaviour.
Finally I have even changed system language settings, default location, keyboard layout, number format etc. to English(US) - no change to the REF field.
It also happened that field expansion was slightly instable: the result changed between first and second update ("F9") between "unterhalb" and "unten", then stayed stable. But I don't know how to exactly reproduce this.
For me it feels like a bug in Word, but maybe I have missed something else?
A workaround would be a nested field like
{ IF { REF ...}="unte*" "below" "above" }
or for PAGEREF
{ IF { PAGEREF ...}="unte*" "below" { IF { PAGEREF ... }="oben" "above" "on page {PAGEREF without \p...}" } }
and place a HYPERLINK on the result (Ctrl-K) as required.
... but this tends to be too complicated for everyday use
