I'm sure it is possible with a bunch of work, but why would you want to? A chain drive is heavier, requires more maintenance, will not last as long and is safer.

Chain drive requires rear wheel adjustment every 300 to 3000 miles (depending on the model), lubrication with special chain grease (do NOT use WD-40 or 3-in-1), and if a chain comes off the sprocket, you are facing a rear-wheel lockup which can cause a crash at speed.

Belt drive requires no lube, no performance loss vs chain, and if you throw a belt it will become shredded which avoids a nasty rear-wheel lock.
