sure you can use a user_func in $TCA... '['config']['itemsProcFunc'] to
populate a select-box. Have a look at the "core_api" documentation
somewhere on this page for help on $TCA:
http://130.228.0.33/t3dl/src/

the page-template-selector might serve as a nice example to do that,
browse it's $TCA for example. There should be some help
available regarding this in modern-tut part III as well.

Cheers,
