Nive work has been done by Clément Capel on this topic:
http://www.pps.jussieu.fr/~capel/eng/toplevel/toplevel.html

Many hacks that were necessary at this time are no more needed due to cleanup 
work and necessary extensions done by Xavier before the release of ocaml 3.08, I 
think.

But definitively, its possible, yes.
