Given Turing-completeness, one should more precisely ask whether there
is already a library for doing something in Python rather than whether
something is possible with Python.

It is generally customary to wait /at least/ one day before pinging on

If you were to have searched PyPI (http://pypi.python.org), you would
have found psutil, which seems to fit your bill:
