How could I achieve that?

You can use a regex:
Of course this will not check for a valid date, but in that case you can always let your server-side code throw an error. If you want more client-side validation have a look at Javascript: how to validate dates in format MM-DD-YYYY?; it is easy to adapt to your format.
