Yes. You can create a ASIC to do just about anything you want given enough funding.
But.....
Will off the shelf consumer hardware still be better? Even if it's a couple of orders of magnitude slower, the R&D and production and manufacturing and testing and so on might wind up being cheaper.

Even if tomorrow someone magically snapped their fingers and it came into being and millions of these units were produced the odds of finding a funded address are still so close to zero as to be zero.
