If we're being honest, the only thing that differentiates an interpreted and compiled language is intention (design decisions that make one implementation versus the other easier) and what you choose to run the language through. You can make almost any general purpose language "compiled", depending on how fat you're willing to make the runtime. And you can certainly create an interpreter/JIT VM for C/C++. It's not a question of possibility, but one of "why?".
