No A Scala interpreter and ahead-of-time compiler requires deep compiler and language-semantics expertise, and Scala's type system and JVM interop are very hard to reproduce correctly.
What it would actually take: A real version needs a parser and typechecker for Scala 3's language, an IR and optimizer, and a native backend (likely via LLVM or Cranelift in Rust), plus a conformance test suite. This is multi-year compiler work requiring experienced PL and compiler engineers.
