No, it's not that simple.
You would have to add some sort of random offset to the grobs (especially the 
stems need to be typeset in a totally different matter); You would need to code 
new beams and slurs. You would need to recode the spacing engine.

I think that getting a good result would take a major effort - and it would be 
of limited use; really - if you want handwritten style, then why not write in 
hand?
