Yes it is possible but you will have to post a bit of source code, to see what you have done so far. I found this link that maybe is interesting to you:

It explain how to drag and drop tabs, maybe you can apply the same principle to your idea.

Also in this forum there is a similar question, maybe you wanna have a look:
