No, you can't change the text via OEM.
HOWEVER, If you remove the stock stereo, and install an aftermarket head unit, AND if you choose to use a Metra single or double DIN facia kit, then the logic box (to allow HVAC use) in the Metra kit will let you change the display to whatever you want.
Please search before you start a new thread, as this has been covered many times....

Here is one of the threads about the Metra Kit: https://www.rx8club.com/series-i-interior-audio-electronics-24/metra-kit-out-157780/
The above info is for US/CDN 2004 to 2008 cars only.
