Would it be possible to make virtual nic's within NodeJS which only that process can bind to which connect to other node processes or other software with GRE tunnels?

Anything is possible, but you would probably want to do that at the OS level.

You may want to look into tun/tap devices, which gives a process file handle on one end, and a network interface on the other, directly connected to your OS's routing infrastructure.
