Definitely (and the cursor font too).  The TinyX (KDrive) server
already does that.

Unfortunately, it is not possible to use the KDrive built-in fonts
code in the XFree86 server, as it pulls in quite a lot of stuff which
shouldn't be in the core server (including the fontdir code, the PCF
parser and libz).  I've been planning to do a clean implementation of
built-in fonts for quite some time, but as usual Real Work is keeping
me distracted.
