No because the idea is patented and if you did this you would go to jail.
Just kidding. It's not possible for you to implement this, although Blizzard could if they wanted to. But there actually is a patent (owned by Namco) on minigames in a loading screen: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loading_screen#Minigames
PS3 had a loading screen for the game Fat Princess. They added it in a later patch where moving the controller would move a cake, it would move on quicker if you did nothing.
I was just wondering if it was possible to put a game in a loading screen? It would be really cool and good for long loading times

heh reminds me of the Black & White 2 loading screen where you could screw with the logo while it was loading the game :P
The only thing i can put at a loading screen is icon and colorful text.
I can make a fake loading screen with those mini-games you wanted though :) It will load after the actual loading screeen.

if we're talking about loading screen nostalgia now I remember you can play with 3d model of Mario's face in Super Mario 64.
