I need to render these glyphs in a Word document, without resorting to copy/paste images as I did here.

Thanks in advance for any hint
You won't be able to display the boxed SP with a font, I think.
These two are easy, and you should find quite a few fonts that support the simple Unicode characters:
ɑ U+0251
№ U+2116
The d with a hacek above is a bit trickier. This is best attempted using a lowercase d with a combining hacek mark (U+030C), but software may normalise this as U+010F -- ď --, which has a different form. This is because this is the conventional display of d+hacek in two European orthographies that use the diacritic, Czech and Slovak.

But how this character and many other boxed characters were printed in this Unicode code chart ?
Yes, the Unicode glyph charts make use of specialised fonts to display visual representations of control characters and other normally non-visible entities. They are also built using a custom piece of software, which means they avoid the default layout behaviours of typical text processing apps when dealing with these characters.

Try U+0064 U+034F U+030C -- works with some fonts (e.g., Calibri, Charis SIL, Doulos SIL).
Great suggestions. Thanks to all of you !!!
1. John, I want to assure you that before posting the question I spent almost an hour trying to find the character ɑ U+0251 in the code charts, to no avail.
2. Bob, the trick with the Combining Grapheme Joiner worked beautifully in Calibri.
3. Ralf, unfortunately the characteres U+2420 and U+20DE (COMBINING ENCLOSING SQUARE) don't combine in Arial Unicode MS. In Lucida Sans Unicode, the glyph for the character U+2420 (␠) is even better, but the font doesn't have the code U+20DE.
