If Ethereum nodes are continually evaluating executable contract programs, are the semantics general enough to allow implementing the world’s least efficient bitcoin miner?

Yes. Any touring complete system can replicate precisely any other touring complete system, and execute any classical program. Ergo, you can build a bitcoin miner in minecraft. Literally. In fact, if you implement a very low difficulty, the literally-in-minecraft bitcoin network will remain performant.
