It is indeed possible to run arbitrary linux ELFs as unikernels via tools such as https://ops.city && using the Nanos unikernel https://github.com/nanovms/nanos .

However, chrome itself would not be supported currently as that is a gui program and at least for Nanos programs they are server-side only.
