Certainly possible, almost certainly not advisable. If you're doing that just to silence validator errors, don't bother. That's following the letter, not the spirit of the spec. Either leave it blank (alt="") for images that AT should ignore (decorative only) or provide useful alt text for images that are important. Putting the file name in accomplishes nothing for AT users as most AT with standard settings will announce the file name of images lacking an alt attribute. So if you might as well just remove the alt attribute if all you're going to do is pop the file name in.
