XEmacs has a direct, non-X interface to Canna and Wnn (it must
be enabled at build time, i.e. it must link against the Canna and/or
Wnn Libraries).
For GNU Emacs there is an interface to Canna and Wnn implemented
purely in Emacs Lisp.
Both XEmacs and GNU Emacs have (rather primitive) built in Japanese
input methods, implemented in Emacs Lisp.
When running them in a terminal
(x)emacs -nw
you can use these input methods.
nvi-m17n also has a direct, non-X Canna-interface which can be used
from a terminal.

I don't think this is currently possible, it would need a lot of
artificial Intelligence.
