Why not ? See this thread :

He already embeds emacs within emacs. Embedding firefox (or chrome, or midori, or whatever) shouldn't be much harder. A keymap would be transfered to the underlying process (kinda like what term-mode does), so the user can scroll the window and thinkgs like that. That alone would be extremely useful. Then, we can use inter-process communication (maybe mozrepl can do that ?) to better communicate with the browser (and really integrate it into emacs, ie have the minibuffer prompt the user for the webpage to go to, and maybe add link following, kind of like how conkeror does). What I think would be really hard to do is have emacs edit text areas in place, but that's only icing on the cake.
