It could be possible.

As for going a little farther on this topic though, with the matrix available
for the rapid exchange of ideas and inspiration, spell theory in some aspects
of the game should have far surpassed a lot of the knowledge that was
available to previous mages and shamans from the previous ages. There are
still areas where the world lags in, but if the world decided to play catch-
up, it would not take very long before the knowledge is acquired and then
eventually surpasses what was known previously.

And this is probably something that scares the pants off of the IEs and anyone
else who stands to lose power and influence in the Sixth World.
