Short answer: no. Long answer: if and only if you can really parallelize your processing into very small calculation each doesn't take a lot of memory, and you have a lot of time of writing special code using special framework. Perhaps streaming encoding in real time could be one, but that's already sort of beyond general web application.
GPU is powerful because a GPU usually has 100+ cores. Each core is weak and inefficient, but power adds up when you have 100+ cores available.
