It seems like this could get complicated as it depends on how/where you
store your sent messages. Also, it looks like org-mode links rely on
the gnus group, and article id to link back to an article, so somehow
you would need a hook which runs after the sent article has been saved
into a group and given an ID. If this has been done before with
planner, then it should be fairly straightforward to examine the
previous implementation and adapt it to org-mode. Or I could be
horribly wrong.

I'm straying slightly off topic here, but take a look at `gcc-self'
under gnus:Group Parameters. It automatically saves a copy of outgoing
mail into the group from which the mail was sent. I use the following
to turn it on for all of my mail groups.
(setq gnus-parameters
'(("mail\\..*"
(gcc-self . t))))
