It seems that this still isn't available in JQL, but to hack your way around this without paying for ScriptRunner, you can use Jira automations. See answer on a similar question.

Hi @Vivek Soni , 

This has been discussed in the following links as well (natively it is not possible to do a jql to search for issues with certain length).
