Yes. We already have a CRC-32 JtR format in jumbo, it works on CPU.
You'd produce the same on GPU, using gcnasm for the GPU code, as a
sample and a baseline for further work on JtR formats that use gcnasm.
Since this is primarily a sample, please keep the code simple. Its
speed is unimportant. In fact, it will certainly run slower than its
CPU equivalent, because of all the data transfers to/from GPU (unless
you implement mask mode on GPU, which Sayantan is working on - but you
should not bother with that yet). We need a very basic/skeleton format
showing how code written using gcnasm can be integrated into JtR.
