Yes and no.
No because it's not possible to set it to "Slovenian_Slovenia.UTF-8".
Windows only seems to accept numerical values for encodings.
Yes because it's possible to set the locale to
"Slovenian_Slovenia.65001" where 65001 stands for UTF-8, but I guess
that vim has no idea what number 65001 means. I have tried it, I have
created menu translation menu_slovenian_slovenia.65001.vim which has
been used (confirmed by modifying some strings in that translation),
but vim didn't behave any differently.

PS: the encoding in locale seems to be there just for "old application
that don't understand unicode", so windows doesn't bother to set the
locale to Unicode even if it's a a unicode system.
PPS: Even if I would manage to force the encoding in Locate to be
UTF-8, I guess that it still needs to be fixed in such a way that it
will behave properly by default. (Some years ago I was getting Slovak
translations by default on every computer which was a lot worse than
not getting any tranlation at all.)
