I was speaking to one of the Sweet.js developers about this, and apparently the only obstacle is that Sweet.js doesn't have the ability to make whitespace significant. Other than that, it should be entirely possible.

> Sweet.js doesn't have the ability to make whitespace significant

Feature, not a bug? But yeah, I guess that would be an impediment to implementing CoffeeScript. I'd like to see some of the CoffeeScript syntax implemented but without whitespace dependency (so it would have to be a modified version of the syntax).
