NLS_CHARACTERSET and NLS_NCHAR_CHARACTERSET both set to UTF8 ?

Hello,
I have a problem with Oracle 9.2.0.6.0 on Unix.
Is it possible to set (when database is created) both parameters:
NLS_NCHAR_CHARACTERSET as UTF-8
NLS_CHARACTERSET and UTF-8
?
Database administrator told me that when he created database with
NLS_CHARACTERSET = UTF-8
then
NLS_NCHAR_CHARACTERSET is always set to AL16UTF16 and it can not be
changed to UTF-8 ?

Application which I tried to install required
UFT-8 set on both NLS_NCHAR_CHARACTERSET and NLS_CHARACTERSET

Thank you
Regards,
Mariusz /MANIEK/
