It should be doable using either https://github.com/baskerville/sxhkd
or http://welz.org.za/projects/mxk/

A disclaimer applies: I haven't tried the former. Worse, am
the author of the latter, and while my utility is featureful it
is also truly cryptic, implementing its own declarative data flow
language.
