In Unicode, is these a way to superimpose a character over another

unicode

I am looking for a joining character that works a bit like overset in LaTeX. It also works a bit like the many combining Unicode characters, but I would like it to work for any alphabetic letter. For example, I'd like to put a small capital A over an e.

Best I could find was this esoteric Unicode block called Combining Diacritical Marks Supplement, but that doesn't define every letter in the alphabet.

Is there no joining character which puts one symbol over the other?

This is possible using HTML and CSS.

The left and right characters don't exist in Unicode table. (I don't find them).

So I created them using following HTML code

<span>
    <span style="position:relative; right:-12px; top:-2px;">&#x2503;</span>
    &#x2BC7;
</span>
<span>&#x2BC7;</span>
<span>&#x2BC8;</span>
<span>
    &#x2BC8;
    <span style="position:relative; left:-12px; top:-2px;">&#x2503;</span>
</span>
