There is no built-in way for doing this.  The 'findbracket' function
works only between single code points.

When you add this to your .nanorc:

  set matchbrackets "(<[{«﹝)>]}»﹞"

then the following key binding should work:

  bind M-B "{replace}<div{enter}﹝{enter}A
            {replace}</div{enter}﹞{enter}A
            {findbracket}
            {replace}﹞{enter}</div{enter}A
            {replace}﹝{enter}<div{enter}A
            {left}{right}" main

Note that I have wrapped the string for clarity.  In your .nanorc
file the binding should be a single long line without any spaces
between the quotes.  Note that the mini tortoise brackets are
double-width characters.  Of course, you can choose any pair of
special characters that you like, as long as they will never occur
in any of your HTML documents.

(The final {left}{right} are not essential -- they serve just to
clear the "Replaced xxx occurrences" message from the status bar,
when using --quickblank or --minibar.)
