Question

Do you think it’d be possible to make an app using Godot?

In principle it should be doable, though there may be difficulties; see:

You might have to add support for the codecs you need; I’m reasonably certain Youtube videos aren’t Ogg Theora encoded.

For Youtube playback, you may need to understand and be able to work with their DRM scheme:

I suspect you’ll find this is a tough challenge. It might be easier at least initially to make a mobile movie player that can stream/play an Ogg Theora video off a web page, and then build from there.
