This has been done before. The very first IBM POWER cpu was actually a full card with 7 chips I think. One was an instruction dispatcher, and the others were execution units for floating point/integer operations. Each time an instruction arrived to the cpu, it would be sent by the dispatcher to an available core. The dispatcher would also store the results back in memory.
I have such a beast , it says 1991 on it (FWIW, it's an IBM powerserver 320).
