You're thinking of a beowulf. A supercomputer is usually 1024 nodes or more.

Is this possible? possible, but then you don't have a supercomputer anymore. Supercomputers are stripped down (eg don't have swap) and only run the application. You're application won't scale unless you're running 99.9% application.
