Is it possible to allow node editing inside a tab?

Assume that we have a tab containing a node. It would be nice if one could place an 'edit'-button at the bottom of the node. Then, when the user clicks on this edit button the node should be replaced by the node edit form (all this should happen within the tab). When the user has finished editing and hits 'save' then the edit form in the tab should again be replaced by the updated node.

Is this possible?

Thank you for the quick answer.

Would it be hard to implement this functionality? Any hints?

check http://drupal.org/project/formblock to see how a node edit form can be displayed in block
+ use some jquery magic to replace the content

it is not easy to embed forms as many forms have hard-coded logic which may not work everywhere.

I am also looking for something like this to enable nominated editors to easily access and edit a quicktab node. I rather like the feature in Panels where a small 'Edit node' link appears when hovering over a node title. Would this be possible in Quicktabs?
