Yes, it's possible for Fediverse apps like Fedilab to support end-to-end encrypted DMs. We plan to write a FEP where actors expose their public keys in their profile. Each app would manage encryption locally while servers act as relays. The security model is the same as Signal: private keys stay on the device, servers only see encrypted data.
