Sure. I'd install it as a dual-boot option. Would make using PC for PC stuff more painful though, because I'd have to reboot the thing to switch between PC and PS4 stuff.

Well, maybe not, there is windows OS 10 having Android Player App. If Sony created PlayStation now as a APK for any Android Device which it pretty much already is..than you would not have to reboot.

If you are talking a full on Gamer OS for PC, than yeah I could see that, but if they did, most likely scenario would be a forked version of Android OS designed from the get go to be playstation centric.

PlayStation now, playstation Vue, remote play, PlayStation messenger App, PlayStation store access app.  And its still full Android OS so playstore etc. Like Amazon fire devices just side load google playstore like you can on Amazon fire tablets. Sony's next handheld I can see ending up this way. 

Since dual shock 3&4 support is already there for xperia and SmartTV's like Sony's own and Samsung, moving PlayStation to silicon valley's HQ was most likely spurned on by these & other developments.

That's not an OS, it's more like an emulator. I doubt it would work for PS4 as emulation seems to take quite a bit of power. What I'm saying it that it would run too slowly to be playable on a lot of computers. That said, PS4 is pretty close to modern computers in architecture so unless there's something that's vastly different in some regard, it might not be a big problem.
