you will have to find, if it exists, a version of linux mint for the kindle's ARM v7 (armel, softfloat, gnueabi).

It does not exist in binary form.
It will have to be built from source.
The only reason to choose Linux Mint over one of the distributions it is derived from is its GUI.
But you lose most of that when you run it on a grayscale display.
And Linux Mint is not a touch screen based GUI, you will have to invent that bit of the GUI for yourself.

Choosing another distribution makes sense.
If you need to build anything from source, it is possible to setup your Kindle Touch to do a native build.
Probably not something a person without Linux experience should attempt.
Be certain that what you choose can be run on the kernel version installed on your Kindle Touch.
If you have to port a more modern kernel to the Kindle, you are in for a big, highly technical, bit of work.

I'll stick with my reply of:
No, not practical.
