Something like this seems to do approximately what you want:
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(defun word-to-link ()
(interactive)
(save-excursion
(let (start end word)
(backward-word)
(setq start (point))
(forward-word)
(setq end (point))
(setq word (buffer-substring start end))
(setf (buffer-substring start end)
(format "[[%s]]" word)))))
#+END_SRC
