In theory, I think it could be done, although you do suffer from the Lord of The Rings problem where so much stuff ripped off that book that now your adaptation can't help but look like a ripoff of everything else.

OTOH I very much doubt we'll actually see a good adaptation of Neuromancer, ever. Not unless the Wachowskis finally get their hands on it.
