Doubtless.

I see some big problems with that:
Not everyone can use FUSE. A FUSE-9P translator would have to be
written to facilitate importing /net. Some distros may do DNS
differently, including administrative restrictions that could cause a
FUSE-based DNS filesystem to fail.
It would probably be a good substitute while work continues on the
slashnet driver, as it could make development of other parts easier,
but in the long run I don't think it's a viable solution.
