Well, in theory, yes.  But since VAR2 is defined as simply

VAR2=`echo $VAR | tr "[:upper:]" "[:lower:]"`

I don't think there is any reason for the anchors.

Or the \VAR2 really.

* $ ! VAR ?? $VAR2

would be fine.

Do you have any other use for $VAR2?  If the only reason you're doing 
all this is to find out whether $VAR has any upper case letters (and 
therefore would differ from $VAR2), then

:0D
* VAR ?? [A-Z]
action

will do the job without the shell call and without the tr call.
