Absolutely.
The first thing is to review the existing implementations of a gettext runtime, which you have done.
The second thing will be to find out how a locale is chosen in the Go world.
The third thing will be to decide whether we want a gettext runtime that binds to the one in C, or one that is written entirely in Go. There seem to be different approaches in the Go world, cf. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Go_(programming_language)#History
The fourth thing will be to decide about the API that the programmer should see.
Then we can go on to implement the thing.
