Electronically it's probably not very hard. Almost certainly the volume dial is a variable resistor, so it would be just a matter of removing that component and replacing it with a switch that has (essentially) 0 resistance. I've done somewhat similar projects before, and it's not hard.
Mechanically, it would be a matter of finding a switch that fits, more or less, into the space given. The difficulty in this is aminly a function of how important the overall aesthetics of the final result are. I can probably do this.
