It is certainly possible to launch a separate elisp interpreter from
emacs, and delegate to it commands for asynchronous execution. For an
example have a look here:
http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/Sunrise_Commander#toc4
that one implements only the copy and move operations, but it would
be trivial to add remove too, or any other command that can be put in
the background.
