Yes, although duplicating all of what update-server-info does is going to take a while... However, the only thing of interest to update-server-info that http-push is able to change is a ref. It would be much more straightforward to lock and update info/refs after a successful push; is that good enough? The same thing could apply to objects/info/packs if/when http-push starts sending packs. -- For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for nature cannot be fooled.
