Yes, it is possible. However, currently I would not want to allow commit access through the git cvsserver emulation. IMHO, it is not mature enough. Within the next few days, I expect to set up for (read-only) cvs pserver access to the gnulib git mirror. If that goes well, we'll soon switch primary upstream development from cvs to git. If all goes well there, it should be easy to do the same for emacs.
