Though they don't use in-wheel motors, the concept of using the idle rear wheels on FWD cars in hybrids is already being commercialised by Peugeot / Citroen and Volvo.
(Taking clues from the ancient Porsche, no doubt.)

In wheel motor are just the next step.
Though it's more of a technological jump than a step.
