yes, we can move accordingly thru REDEFINES clause.
Example :
01 WS-A PIC 9(5).
01 WS-AR REDEFINES WS-A PIC X(5).
01 WS-B PIC A(5).
01 WS-BR REDEFINES WS-B PIC X(5).


MOVE 12345 TO WS-A.
MOVE SPACES TO WS-AR.
MOVE 'ABCDE' TO WS-B.
MOVE ZEROES TO WS-BR.

WS-A, WS-AR contains spaces and WS-B, WS-BR contains
zeroes.
