Yes, actually I've heard of some projects compiling a language to Wasm, then using wasm2c to translate to C.
https://github.com/WebAssembly/wabt/blob/main/wasm2c/README....
The Zig project does something similar for their bootstrapping process with a custom wasm2c implementation with just the features they need.

I get the feeling this is an underappreciated technique with more potential.
