Flip Flopping the 7 and N/Q

This is an idea I thought of. It seems like the Astoria line is overserved (especially outside of rush hour). On the other hand, the Steinway Tubes were not designed for the level of service it current has. With that in mind, is it possible to run a 7 "shuttle" train from Astoria to Times Square while running the N from Coney Island to Flushing (local) and the Q would be extended to Flushing as a peak express? I realize there are issues with the width of B Division rolling stock, but I'm hoping that this idea would merely require a few staton modifications.
