Probably not in real time but I am actually not sure of that.  Mathematica 
already supports
a pretty descent range of devices to feed data real-time.  Not sure if it could 
handle the bulk
of real time of actual signal frequencies.  Also, Mathematica runs on Raspberry 
Pi and supports
a number of data interfaces as a result of that work (part of their device 
support).

However, my interest is not real-time.  I am more interested in studying the 
math part of
digital signal processing.  That is what Mathematica is good at doing.  I have 
ZERO (capitalized
for great emphasis) interest in making my own SDR, after all, I have a KX3 (and 
most other
rigs made by Elecraft).

I have used Mathematica for many different projects over the last 15 years and 
some of those were
gigantic number crunching projects for work.  But, now that I am retired, I 
have the Home Edition
of Mathematica (actually two copies, one for the iMac and one for the Macbook 
Pro) and I use
it for physics calculations, antenna analysis (I built a runtime interface to 
NEC4), and even game
playing such as solving Sudoku puzzles and playing chess.  It is a great 
functional and pattern
matching language besides the big “curated” data interface it now supports 
(from the work
of WolframAlpha).
