Good thing about the lute; gut frets can easily be removed, or added. Might drive yourself crazy tying in quarter tone frets, but such things have been done. Lily Afshar, Iranian classical guitarist, had some quarter tone frets added to one of her guitars at certain strategic spots.

Paulo Galvao had an arrangement of something of the sort for oud and lute duo, 10 or so years ago. Otherwise I'd say the idea of arranging microtonal fretless music for a diatonic fretted instrument is just implausible.
