Would this be feasible in a mapfile alone?

I pass in a url with a feature_id in it. Say:-

[URL TO MAP FILE]?feature_id=124

The map file uses a postgres query to retrieve the feature_id’s geometry as a 
point and then clips a raster layer to a kilometre bounding box around the 
point. 

A single jpg/tif/png would be returned with the point marked in the correct 
position on the raster


This url could then be used on a webpage to show a small map snippet for the 
feature’s location.
