Not without creating a new tool, as far as I am aware. Mouse-over
events are not allowed in SVG (which would be one of the simplest ways
of doing it). GIFs showing rotating instruments would be allowed. I
have successfully created these from image sets from off-wiki websites
in the past, and they display nicely in Wikipedia articles without
issues from re-scaling etc. There is a maximum limit on GIF size based
on the total sum of image resolutions making the animation, but this
is plenty for, say, a reasonable 30 second animation of a rotating
tool below 400x400px.

Depends on the solution. I created animated GIFs using standard
command line instructions wrapped in a bit of Python.
