No, he can't.  'z' is a voiced consonant, and 't' is unvoiced.  "ztran." would
have to be changed to "stran.", "zdran.", or "zytran." in order to be an
acceptable Lojban word.  Even if he chose one of the first two, any 'i' sound
between the first two consonants would be nonstandard and would only be used by
those having trouble with the cluster.

If he writes it as "zetran.", the emphasis will already go on the "ze" by
default.
