No it won't....Db2 doesn't work that way (MS SQL Server is another story ;)
)

Actually the example in ACS is exactly what the OP wants to do

-- category: Routine (Function or Procedure) Statements
-- description: Create or Replace Function Language SQL CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION function2(parameter1 INTEGER)
RETURNS INTEGER
LANGUAGE SQL
BEGIN
DECLARE variable1 DECIMAL(5, 2);
SELECT c1
INTO variable1
FROM table1
WHERE column1 = parameter1;
RETURN variable1;
END;

Just modify it with the actual names and parms needed.

Open up or download and open up ACS product. It has a plugin Run SQL

functions listed. Choose the one intended to be for SQL only code.

You will have two input parms that you will replace with your ?'s.
The last line should be
Return SELECT max( date(CHTS) ) FROM colhst WHERE CHCLMNO = P1 and
CHCOLL# = P2
