It's not possible as far as I know.  nVidia will not release the full
source to their drivers or hardware spec (as they don't own the IPR to
everthing, Microsoft and SGI own parts), but will not write a DRI
implementation either.

I've not found a need for DRI yet, as the nVidia drivers from their web
site are very optimized (Quake 3 for me is faster in Linux than it is in
Windows).
