Not precisely.  It means that that xml file apparently contains
characters than cannot be encoded by the declared encoding.  Thus the
declared encoding is apparently mistaken.

Using a character reference or an entity would be a possible way to put
non-encodable characters into an xml document (non-encodable with
respect to the particular encoding, that is).
