If:

        1) that file format is documented somewhere, or can be 
reverse-engineered

and

        2) it has records for each packet that contain the raw data for the 
packet and, if it's available, a time stamp for the packet

it's probably possible - we'd have to see the documentation for the file 
format, or see some capture files in that format as well as information giving 
some or all of the contents of each packet and, if they're in the file, the 
time stamp for each packet (for reverse-engineering).

What if, for example, it's an Ethernet or Wi-Fi capture and there are more than 
two hosts?

For IP packets, if you know the IP addresses of two of the hosts, you could 
construct two color filter rules for traffic in each direction between those 
hosts, but that wouldn't handle traffic between one of those hosts and a third 
host, or traffic between two other hosts.  If it's on a network with multiple 
link-layer addresses, the same would apply to them.
