I don't know of anyone who has tried it. This is not a simple matter for several reasons: you need to find the appropriate dies, with reverse threads as well, the pedal spindle is likely hardened and difficult to cut, and you will need to disassemble the pedal to work on the spindle alone. Contrast all of that with tapping an alloy crank and it's why I don't think you ever see anyone do this.
