I don't think there are enough hooks to change how the current members tree renders, so the best I could suggest would be to write a custom tree. Take a look at these umbraco videos on the subject:
Once you have a working tree though, you can basically set the initialize attribute for the member tree to false, and it should hide the default members tree, then you can just show yours in it's place.
It's a bit of an advanced subject to cover everything, but hopefully the above will give you a starting point and then by all means come back with any specific questions you might have.
Umbraco custom member sorting
Hello there,
I currently want to change the way the Member area works at the back office of umbraco.
My site's member names will be in Greek, so I would like to change the way the sorting works.
I don't want my members to be children of "Other" node. Something like greek alphabet nodes just like the english ones would be great.
Can I change this? If so, can you please point me a direction to it?
I don't have any experience in extending umbraco.
Thanks in advance!
Hey,

Other than that, you can do a search for custom trees in Umbraco and you should find plenty of examples:

Worth bearing in mind though, from Umbraco 4.8, how you declare trees moved out of the database and into config files:
