It should be possible according to these articles, but sadly only project template in C++ is currently available for Windows (Phone) Runtime Component:
Creating Windows Runtime Components (Windows 8)
Share using Windows Runtime Components (Windows Phone 8)

If you read your second link, you'll realize that it's **not** possible. – Claus Jørgensen Nov 07 '12 at 18:06

I read the second link carefully and there's nowhere that says explicitly that it's not possible to create a component in C#, but I thought I'd read it somewhere... – Paul Annetts Nov 08 '12 at 09:58
@PaulAnnetts the table under "Creating and consuming Windows Runtime Components" only lists C++ under languages in which you can write windows phone runtime components. – Jackson Jul 17 '13 at 21:51

It doesn't appear to be possible at this time.
