It can be done, but it's a big and complicated job (think of it
as about as much effort as porting an OS like Linux to the board
would be: each device needs a device model to be written, and
that's about as much work as writing a device driver). There's
no documentation, you have to look at the existing QEMU source
code to see how to write new device models.
