I think it’s completely possible. Though, you’ll have to manage your own control-plane.

Azure AKS and EKS provide virtual-kubelet functionality in some form, but AKS is an a managed control-plane where you can’t add nodes yourself and EKS only allows nodes in the same VPC.

Edit: It already is a thing. https://github.com/virtual-kubelet/tensile-kube

tensile-kube seems to be structured as a "k8s cluster of k8s clusters", with an upper kubemaster farming out resources to lower kubemasters (through virtual-node). I don't know if there's any particular reason to have that separation; possibly the lower kubemasters could be removed and you could just run a bunch of virtual-kubelets.
