It could fit into the Cyclone. It really all depends on the bandwidth you want to use, and how efficient of an FPGA coder you are. What you are proposing requires pretty considerable skill not only in reprogramming the FPGA but also in wireless communications. Modulation, symbol rate, FEC scheme, distance, line-of-sight, transmit power - the list goes on for quite a while. These are the parameters you have to tweak to get your design to fit within the FPGA. As for multipath, you can try to use a RAKE receiver to help mitigate this as I don't think the Cyclone could really handle having an equalizer run at anything other than extremely low rates.
You may also want to start with some of the SPAN 802.11 code which detects the beginning of 802.11 packets and does the despreading in the FPGA:
