Could you build this?

No Building an IDA Pro tokenizer and disassembly colorizer requires deep knowledge of binary reverse engineering, x86/ARM disassembly engines, and IDA's complex C++/Python SDK.

What it would actually take: Built using C++ or IDAPython integrating with the IDA SDK (Hex-Rays). The hard part is parsing low-level IDA syntax tokens (operands, registers, memory references, synthetic symbols, and custom calling conventions) across disparate CPU architectures while handling user-defined structs, variable offsets, and xref annotations without corrupting the rendering pipeline. This requires specialized reverse engineering tooling expertise and intimate familiarity with binary analysis internals.
