Is there a way to wrap an await/async try/catch block to every function?

by

Yes, you can easily write such a wrapper for asynchronous functions as well – just use async/await:

function wrapper(f) {
    return async function() {
//         ^^^^^
        try {
            return await f.apply(this, arguments);
//                 ^^^^^
        } catch(e) {
            customErrorHandler(e)
        }
    }
}

Or you use promises directly, like in this example that is more tailored to express (especially with the number of parameters):

function promiseWrapper(fn) {
    return (req, res, next) => {
         fn(req, res).catch(next);
    };
}
