I think it's possible. We were planning on converting our competition bot to it in the offseason.
Using something like versablocks as bearing blocks allows for more than ample space in the 2x1 for 2 16t #25 sprockets side-by-side.

So this is mounted using the bolts along the bottom? I feel like that could cause the gearbox to flex back, but I could be wrong (something like that happened to our 2012 robot, although it was a slightly different situation).
