it be possible to hack the hardware to output the same line twice at double

I don't think there's any way to do this with the stuff that's already inside the Beeb, because it requires hardware to buffer scan lines, create new sync signals, etc. It might be possible to fit a scan doubler inside the case. An external one makes more sense to me, where it can be moved to different machines.
