It should not be very difficult to do: you have to write a niff2mudela
convertor, which shouldn't be that hard, since NIFF contains all
musical information (and a lot of typesetting junk you can throw
away).
You then write a script that runms the niff through the convertor and
runs Lily and TeX on it. Finally you call ghostview to do the viewing.
Whether this is convenient, is another question, given the speed and
size of the tools involved.

This like asking: Why can't a ferrari be much cheaper.
