Is it possible? Yes. I've met some people who tell me they run a relay which records every hidden service descriptor. They don't tell me more than that. All this tells them is a list of hidden service descriptors their relay has seen, not where they are, or maybe not even accessible ports. There are already a few sites trying to index .onionland to varying degrees of success. http://ahmia.fi/ is one. Torgle, https://github.com/torgle, is another.
