In the latest version of Illustrator (25.2.3) you can do that pretty straightforwardly by enabling the glyph detection in the flyout menu of the Align palette.

 

In older versions you would have to use a workaround that first applies an Outline effect to the type object and then aligns while the Use Preview Bounds option is turned on.

 

I'd recommend to update to the latest Illustrator version, though.
