Abaco (the web browser shipped with Plan 9) already does what you're suggesting, using webfs and an HTML parsing library.
It might be possible to replace that parsing library with a version of Webkit or Gecko ported to Plan 9 in order to achieve "modern" web standards support while sticking to 9P and such for the actual network portion of web browsing.
