Well, everything is possible.

In this case you would need to write something which catches the C-o key press
and then "activates some mode" by registering your other keybindings or starting
a keygrabber (so that e.g. Esc or some timeout can easily be used to de-activate
this "mode" again).

However, it's not possible in the sense of "AFAIK no one wrote and published
something that would make this easier".
