Depends on what kind of "CPU" the robots use. If it's electricity-based, Corvo MIGHT be able to possess them. If it's purely mechanical (like Charles Babbage's Difference Engine), he has no chance. And if it's powered by the souls of orphans (this is Dishonored, after all), it might lead to a very confusing case of two "spirits" competing over who gets to be the ghost in the machine.

In all honesty, though, in actual gameplay the robots are probably non-possessable. I expect the developers to give us a new set of tools just for them, like the arc mine in the trailer.
