It is not possible to overwrite or re-define an existing tag-field from the Tag-Panel's standard set of tag-fields.  
You can create an additional multiline Tag-Field="MY\_COMMENT" with Name="My co&mment".

To avoid the appearing of the new defined tag-field in the list of tag-fields, ...  
you may set a Mapping for Tag=ID3v2 with Source=MY\_COMMENT and Target=COMMENT.

But there is a problem when subsequently writing text into the MY\_COMMENT edit field and saving ...  
because Mp3tag adds multi-value COMMENT tag-fields.
