AFAIK, this would require rooting the firmware and installing custom apps.

What you can do is create an ePub dictionary with a comprehensive TOC. For an example, have a look at the free MS Reader Dictionaries. (Since they're not DRMed, you can deflate them with ConvertLIT.)

The main TOC of these dictionaries contains links for each letter of the alphabet. When you click a letter a sub TOC page is displayed that narrows the letter range further down. For an example see the screenshots of the Italian-English MS Reader dictionary.
