Heya,
It's just my opinion, but I would think your application should check for that type of constraint on the data before inserting into your dataset.
That being said, I don't believe that pure XML offers regular expressions ... you'd have to use something like XQuery to run a regex pattern on the node and find out if it matches or not.
Sorry I couldn't be of much more assistance.
