is it possible with existent plugin system, to implement this?

it needs modifications in AndroidManifest.xml and it should call custom function if received lest say: plain/text with contents

That seems to be a duplicate of https://github.com/gioui-plugins/gio-plugins/issues/32. The current Share only offers the option to share something (texts and links) to external apps, but not receive.

Currently, it's not possible to change Manifest, using gogio. However, that will be possible when (or if) https://github.com/gioui/gio-cmd/pull/13 gets merged. That same patch is already required for https://github.com/gioui-plugins/gio-plugins/issues/18, which is not public-available, but already developed.

However, similar to Deeplinking/Scheme (https://github.com/gioui/gio/pull/117), I think Share (use the app as a target for sharing) fits better into Gio itself.
