I'm no expert, but if you read:

http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg27005729&aid=1

it says:
"There are other ways of constructing conversion tables. One way is to map all “unknown” characters that exist in the from CCSID but not in the to CCSID to a substitute character. Such tables do not provide round-trip integrity, i.e. when a piece of data is converted from one CCSID to another andback, the original data may not be recovered. Conversion tables supplied with the operating system are often of this type. If you require specific handling of “unknown” characters, you may wish to perform the data conversion within your application using conversion tables and algorithms that satisfy your requirements."

That implies you can get MQ to auto-corrupt your data, just like you have asked for

p.s. have fun testing

Better to use UTF-8 ( CCSID 1208 ) instead of 819 in the target application.
Much less pain all round in the long term.
