Well, of course, everything is possible. But PDFKit would be useless, we would have to basically reimplement it. Anyway, it's even on a more mundane level not possible: where to put the text" 16x16 pixels is far too small, and overlaying the text of the page is no option, it's not even guaranteed to fit there.
