Yes, sure. But THERE IS some data and index already available. See the
monthly posting about the newsgroup s.g.surnames. Then there is the
Roots Surname List (RSL) by Karen Isaacson available via WWW. Also there
is the GenWeb project. Gene Stark has there already an index of several
thousend names. Further the gedcom collection of Cliff Manis containing over
4 millions of entries.
So, there are enough possibilities to find what someone is searching.
