Can not confirm. Alt with Numpad entry of the two codes from OP functions as expected, positioning both character where text cursor is located. Don't think this is related to see also bug 158112 where the <Alt>+Numpad character entry was refactored and available from the 24.2.1 release. But may be worth update install from 7.6.5 to the 24.2.2 release.

I am using LO Writer 24.2.2.2 under Windows 11 version 22H2 and this is *not* repeatable with this configuration. Specifically Alt 0243 ó and alt 168 ¿ appear in their expected positions. I tried several other Alt 9999 combinations (including alt 0191 for ¿) and they all work as expected.
OK, let's => WFM then as it seems correct now for you at 24.2.2 with refactoring of the <Alt>+NumPad alt code entry. Also, note that Windows includes the 'charmap.exe' popup dialog and also from Win10 on the '<⊞Win> + .' emoji popup in addition to the '<Alt>+ NumPad' codes.
