Looks like this:
Fire your starting 3, possibly while dropping your pick up (which faces center field), and backing up toward the centerline discs.
Grab the centerline discs, and fire them as you drive all the way to the alliance wall with your pickup up.
Grab the forward and under-pyramid discs as you return to your starting position and fire them.
It'll be tight, but I'm pretty sure its possible with a robot that's designed for it.

An auto like this is possible if you have a fast firing speed like 610, 1114, etc. 2056 is the closest team to hit this level. IIRC they have had several matches where they shoot 6-7 in auto before returning to the centerline and suck up 1-2 discs. A robot like you mention with a reverse pickup would do the trick.
