The tricky part will be the specification.
Conda, Nix, Debian and other closed infrastructures can do it by controlling the whole set of packages.
However Python packages are exposed to the wild world, where even "I need a C compiler" won't do, as there are many C compilers with different supported C versions, bugs, incompatible extensions, CLI interfaces, target platforms, ideas about ABI etc.
