Definitely, TW can "cheat" a lot with using sprites/very low LOD at distance, only streaming the corresponding units on battle load, and it's turn-based so performance isn't critical. Although obviously you won't be doing those 50000 unit battles on the web.
Off-topic sidenote: what's with all these new projects targeting WASM instead of native, even if packaged for desktop anyway?

I'm calling doubt on that one. Yes you can do it, it's possible but not with Total War fidelity and mechanics.
