It is definitely possible. It would be a lot of work to carefully redo all the work that was done in pokered-gbc, but it could be done.
Here you can see a list of the commits made by Drenn and myself that would have to be considered when making pokeyellow-gbc:

It isn't as straightforward as "inserting the palettes" from pokered-gbc to Yellow because most of the work is custom code that handles palettes correctly for the GBC.

The pokeyellow disassembly is as complete as pokered.

No, someone who has a lot of time on their hands and understands assembly code could do the work :P As he said, it isn't just editing the palettes. It's rewriting a bunch of the code to make the game actually work on the GBC.

True, Yellow just mimicked the SGB look when played in GBC mode, unlike RB which had no GBC support. But still, that code would certainly require some changes and new additions to support Gen 2 style full color on the maps, for example.

I don't think he's trolling, he just doesn't understand what doing something like this entails. Most people think of ROM hacking as using map/graphics editors and other tools with friendly interfaces, so some techniques used for hacking Gen 1 and 2 games in particular tend to be unknown and unexpected for starters.
