The bigger question is why? I don't see any advantages other than reduced complexity, get a C4 if that's what you want.
I assume you're referring to the throttle body/pedal. The ECM won't recognize the TPS, idle valve, etc.

Maybe post your question over in the C5 Tech section - someone there might be able to give you some feedback.

I know I've seen a handful of F/I cars which have been converted to cable.
I don't think its worth the effort, unless you're building some crazy race car.
I know what you're thinking, because a nice fly-by-wire throttle body is a few hundred more than a cable throttle body, but I think the money is not worth the hassle.
