I've done things like port mako templates to Google App Engine. As mentioned by Jeremy Baron, the common problem to porting anything of sufficient complexity is that you're not allowed to write files to the disk. To get mako to work, since it caches compiled templates to disk, I patched it to write the templates to memcache instead. This worked well enough but I didn't need persistent files. So you'd probably have to redirect mediawiki to write files somewhere else more permanent. Google Drive seems like a decent place but last time I tried, integrating Drive with App Engine was silly hard. This might have changed since I haven't tried for a few years.
