I believe you can do it in TeX by changing catcodes and assigning
different values to the letters, i.e. 'a' would produce (cmit) alpha
while A would produce roman A. Unfortunately, you can't get boldface
this way and the kerning won't be right. There was a discussion on
TeXHAX a while ago from some guy who suggested adding regular Greek
and Cyrillic to all CM typefaces in the upper 128 positions.
