Theoretically, if nanotech ran out of control this could happen. Unfortunately it seems that some people prefer to use a cautionary warning as a way to have another go at the Royal Family.
Nanotech does have amazing possibilities, but it also has risks. Ben Bova covers a lot of these in his "Grand Tour of the Solar System" novels which are excellent hard SF.
