I would say at least this part is possible, as during my time in college it was fairly common for me to take naps where I began dreaming in less than a minute, and woke up within 6-10 minutes. I never gave uberman a serious attempt because I didn't have enough pressing things to justify doing in lieu of sleep (which I generally find quite enjoyable, with a healthy dose of vivid, often lucid dreams). I recommend planning a list of things to be doing beforehand, with a moderate physical component.
