http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doom_source_port indicates the Doom source code
is GPLed which means that the source should be freely available.

Has anyone seen it?

I don't see why not, ethically... Assuming he/she ported it,  packaged it,
and paid for the market account to publish it. The textures and game data
are not covered by the GPL license I believe, so he may need permission from
id Software to sell that (don't take my word on that).

Of course, whether it's a popular decision with the target audience is a
different issue altogether :) Also, someone else could legally package Doom
and distribute on the market for free, effectively stealing the customer
base.
