I guess that's theoretically possible, according to Landauer's principle [1]. It's hard to say if it will ever be feasible. It feels like we are running into some serious limitations, since CPUs don't seem to be getting any faster. The CPU will probably have to be totally redesigned from the ground up, using different chemicals, and perhaps light instead of electricity. Or maybe some insane molecular structure computed and created via genetic algorithms and machine learning. Evolution did it to form our brains, so it's definitely possible. I'm not sure how to do the calculation to find the minimum amount of power required for 130 petaflops, but it seems like it's well within the capacity of today's mobile batteries.
