Not really (in a reliable way). One constraint is that Django is
designed to operate seamlessly as a WSGI application and the WSGI
specification does not permit responses to be streamed in pieces
("chunked transfer encoding" in the HTTP 1.1 parlance) from an
application.
Yes, it's theoretically possible to pass a generator to the
HttpResponse, but there are lots of technical problems that can arise.
Some of which are being worked out on the dev list at the moment, some
of which are just technically impossible (like the WSGI constraint).
