If I'm understanding you correctly then yes it is possible, simply by changing out all the current icons with a different filetype that supports transparency (like *.png (24) or *.gif). That is, if the device supports those filetypes as image files.....

Not the icons man. I'm talking about the app.
You open it and the background is transparent and under there's the desktop-background image , like in the menu.

It's not really transparent. I it simply uses the current desktop's background image and do some nice effects on it. If it would really be transparent you'd be able to see the icons and widgets too.

do you want semi transparent to view through the desktop and into the machine

someone requested x-ray pictures of n800 yesterday
and there is already x-rays of n900

would be cool to fake up and see the circuit board behind

A pretty good idea. you could just have the xrays as your background, and voila! Transparent desktop!
