Sure.
But to make that as painless as possible you'd need to do quite the feat
on the technical side, creating an interface between the web-focused
frontend and the mail-based frontend, that works without getting in the
way.
All attempts to do so I know of in the end just created a mongrel that
was the worst of both worlds, satisfying nobody.
So please excuse me if I sound a bit overly pessimistic on that front,
looking back at ~30 years of online communications in a range of media.
