Something in an external method similar to this should do the job.

from string import split, join

def stringtounderscore(str):
	return join(split(str," "),"_");

which is then called from your page as 
<!--#var "stringtounderscore(mystring)"-->

Alternatively, if this is something you only need occasionally, you can
code it directly in DTML...

<!--#var "_.string.join(_.string.split(mystring,' '),'_'"-->

Both of these are untested, but I have tested the join/split command in
python directly:

>>> join(split("this is a test string"," "),"_")
'this_is_a_test_string'
>>>
