Having disassembled iPod Mini to replace hard disk with a Compact Flash memory card from a camera (which has an identical interface) I would think it would work in principal.

Won't buy another iPod and have switched to LG touchscreen player -- which uses solid state to start with -- so no hard drive to break.
