in theory yes, in practice no

basically this makes peer connections stateful, but maintaining that state accurately is very difficult, especially when considering tomography changes in the system

in fact if you can manage that state correctly, you've solved a problem that's roughly the same as the problem that CRDTs solve

(in other words, you're almost certainly not gonna solve that problem correctly)
