Here is a DAX solution using "DAX loops :D"

VAR textNew = UPPER('Table'[Column1])
VAR alphabet = SELECTCOLUMNS(GENERATESERIES(UNICODE("A"), UNICODE("Z")), "@Char", UNICHAR([Value]))
VAR numbers = SELECTCOLUMNS(GENERATESERIES(0, 9, 1), "@Char", [Value])
VAR characters = UNION(alphabet, numbers, ROW("@Char", "@"))
VAR textLength = LEN(textNew)
VAR numTable = SELECTCOLUMNS(GENERATESERIES(1, textLength, 1), "@Num", [Value])
VAR charTable = ADDCOLUMNS(numTable, "@Char", MID(textNew, [@Num], 1))
VAR checkTable =
    ADDCOLUMNS(
        charTable,
        "@Check",
        IF([@Char] IN characters, 0, 1)
    )
VAR countValues = SUMX(checkTable, [@Check])

RETURN {IF(countValues > 0, TRUE())}

Screenshot has the formula with commnets:
