It would be doable, but you would need help with the Gamemastering.
With monthly turns, a Master Gamemaster would run the strategic game,
and either run a tactical engagement or delegate encounters to PBeM
Gamemasters.  In any case, it would be a Monsterous Job.  If you had
enough GM help, it could go smoothly.

I've run the Empress Arianna tournament, a single player elimination,
with eight players for a total of eight distinct matches.  I am 
completing the Empress Arianna II tournament with sixteen players. The
finals are in progress, but I've run fourteen matches with two ongoing.

An assistant GM would have made life a LOT easier.
