There's this old split-screen real-time worms clone called liero, it has rifle weapon that allows this in-game.

They play with reload times set to 0, so this is a little extreme, but just to give an idea:

This game is great BTW, very playable, strange that nobody did html5 online clone.

I had a couple of years at uni where we played this on LAN in one of the computer labs during every lunch break. We even made some maps!

Maybe not html5, but teeworlds is a free clone with modern graphics and network play.
Ooooooh, give me about a week and your wish will be my command.
