So video conversion is possible. Any CPU can handle it. It's just a process. So possible: Yes; Practical: Hardly

If that's the case it really isn't possible for hours of processing to that extent battery drainage(Charger can't supply that much power if processor usage is at 100% even if charger is connected while charging it would still eventually drain out), hardware burn out(Overheating) & software hang up would occur resulting in failure of conversion after. So generally speaking it's 100% impossible.
