It might be possible and may even have been done, maybe even quite awhile 
ago... in fact I have several things of this nature listed and available for 
download from my Apple Oldies website at http://www.appleoldies.ca/

Apple II Unix-like Shells Etc.

Aztec Apple II DOS 3.3 Shell - Manx Software
Aztec Apple II ProDOS 8 Shell - Manx Software
Randy Hyde's ANIX Shell, Lazer Pascal and the LISA Assembler
David A. Lyon's DAVEX Shell
KYAN Pascal and the KIX Shell
Michael J. Pender Jr.'s ProDOS Shell and ProBlock Block Copier
The Phade Shell for Apple II DOS by Phade de Grass (Frank Gadegast)

These are written-up to a reasonable level of understanding as wheels go 
round so at the very least one wishing to become better informed could spend 
some time reading and playing if they are so inclined.

Just half-a-thought from a guy who would rather use Windows Paint than 
struggle with a Gimp.
