Absolutely.  Such a setup has really limited uses, I'd imagine.  Filling the 
frame with a giant sunset/sunrise or moonset/moonrise is one possible 
application.  Here's a George Lepp photo with a huge sun:

I think he stacked teleconverters on a long lens to get this effect.  Of 
course, the resulting lens is slow and magnifies camera shake, atmospheric 
instability, etc. 

It would be fun to experiment with, but probably pretty hard to use....
