Not possible, unless you are going to create your own keyboard. — ozbek, Oct 04 '13 at 08:26

you can acheive this by using Use KeyboardView:

KeyboardView kbd = new KeyboardView(context);
kbd.setKeyboard(new Keyboard(this, R.xml.customlayout));

kbd.setOnKeyboardActionListener(new OnKeyboardActionListener() {
    ....
}

now you have kd which is a normal view.

The nice thing about this is that R.xml.custom refers to /res/xml/custom.xml, which defines in xml the layout of the keyboard. For more information on this file, look here: Keyboard, Keyboard.Row, Keyboard.Key.

you should have a look at ImeActionLabel or ImeActionId

<EditText android:id="@+id/some_edittext"
          android:layout_width="wrap_content"
          android:layout_height="wrap_content"
          android:imeOptions="actionSend">
</EditText>
