That's pretty much close to roleplay, and I doubt it would work as a multiplayer basis unless it is a selectable mode among other more classic (deathmatch, team deathmatch, etc...). Still, I don't think this is the focus of Arkane for this IP. It was meant as a traditional story-driven FPS, just like the Thief games. To implement multiplayer would require a more action-oriented gameplay than a stealth one, hence why Digital Extremes was able to make one for BioShock 2.
