I don't know a whole lot on the subject, but I do know and have seen a small film of Lee's Army of Northern Virginia from the actual Civil War. So, I know it's possible. Who would have done it? Would it have triggered other inventions ahead of time, like lightbulbs and telephones? Anyway, discuss.
EDIT: Scratch that civil war film; just found out it was a well-orchestrated viral prank online. *sigh*
