You can set your element to have a right margin of -1.2em, which would counteract the letter spacing.
e.g.
.menu-header-selector {
display:block;
letter-spacing:1.2em;
margin-right:-1.2em;
text-align:right;
}
To answer your question regarding pseudo-selector, there isn’t a per character pseudo-selector as far as I’m aware. (EDIT: Scratch that, there’s the :First-Letter
selector, which Jonas G. Drange pointed out).
