Yes, as long as Bret was willing to do it.
The problem has never been with Vince wanting to do something with Bret, its Bret who is leary about doing something for Vince. Bret doesn't want to make more money for Vince by trivializing his life into a WWE angle, what he wants to do is say thank-you and good-bye to the fans. He's been on good terms with Vince for about a year now, maybe more, so thats still a long time for Bret not to be on TV yet. Like I said, obviously he has reservations about just showing up on TV. Doing an angle he has always said will NEVER happen because he doesn't think its right. People can hope it'll happen, but I can say that I know it wont. They say never say never in wrestling, well I'm saying 'never', and I'll be right.
In terms of Austin, I would bet that more fans think that was a work. Why? Because he ended up back on TV using his absense in part of an angle, so to the average fan this looks like its all part of the storyline. Hell, I even think the majority of wrestling fans would think that Austin getting fired from WCW was a work just because its been used an angle so much. There are people who think (stupidly) that Montral was a work because Vince did such a good job capitalizing on the character, but people who know anything, that isn't the case. So, if Bret were to come back and KO either Vince or Shawn, it would make that whole thing look like a giant work that was derailed because Owen died and Bret got hurt.
