Possible, certainly!

Convenient, well, perhaps.  It shouldn't be dramatically difficult to do
this.

Unfortunately, the moment that you run into a problem such as power
going out, the "convenience" will drop by a pretty massive factor, as
you'll be scrambling to repair things, and the parts of Slony that were
intended to help you with that are likely to have been destroyed by the
power outage.
