Why shouldn't it? Something like the PPG Wave *easily* fits in there, 
including all the high-level peripherals (VIA, PIA, PTM) and the CPU.

And with 20 18x18 bit (well, 17x17 bit signed) multipliers you don't 
even have to worry about enough juice for the (formerly) analog 
postprocessing. Although 10 36x36 bit multipliers would be more handy :)
