No it is not possible
These things are really nothing more than a Display Terminal which where built to run a Network Connection to the Server where all the processing is done and a Graphic Processing Unit which turns the signals from the server into something that can be read at the terminal.

They simply lack the capability to do any processing.

Thanks! I found out that we had about 200 brand new Neowares that we are about to throw away. I wanted to see if there was anything that I could do with them before recycling them.

About the only thing you could do,
is use it as a second terminal on another full PC, but that is rather old school,
can't remember all the steps I took, and it was over a serial port connection too...
slow by today's standards.
