This question doesn't depend on emacs, but on what lies between your
keyboard and emacs.

Basically, if you are in a windowing environment, emacs will be able
to discriminate C-) and you will be able to bind it to your command.

On the other hand if you are with a terminal, then there is no control
character corresponding to C-), so it's won't be possible.
