I believe the answer should be "yes, you could do that", but I (a) don't have an instapaper account, and (b) have never written a Google Apps Script.
The
Instapaper API provides for OAuth authentication, which is how Google does authentications, so well supported by the Google Apps Script
Urlfetch service. It would seem that you could then use Instapaper's /api/1/bookmarks/list and /api/1/bookmarks/get_text APIs.
The one drawback I see is that it's a violation of Instapaper's API Terms-of-use to have the Apps script store your username/password, so you'd have to enter them every time you used the script.
