Quick answer: No.
Long answer: No.
Longer answer: It violates the concept of entropy if the soul was some for of energy. We know it definitely isn't matter, as there are no inexplicable losses of mass or unaccounted for. What else could it be, if not matter or energy, the only two components this universe works off of?
Protip - coming up with a new substance not only fails in the same way aether, it is thoroughly ridiculous. We don't live in Star Trek (unfortunately), so we cannot go making up new technobabble elements. Soulium sounds like an interesting name for an RTS mineral source...
Hmm, an RTS set in a hellish world, based on a bloody, overkill version of Dante's Inferno, where differing circles of hell vie against each other for dominance. Soulium is extracted from the suffering damned... And the catapults fire babies. /trails off
