Everything is possible in Emacs ;)

Something along those lines seems to work:

(add-hook 'post-command-hook 
          (lambda () (if (equal major-mode 'lisp-interaction-mode)
                         (set-background-color "red")
                       (set-background-color "green"))))

Of course, post-command-hook gets executed after every command, so it
may not be the best possible solution.
