Dunno, I don't know enough about drilling to say whether it's plausible or not, it just seems like it would be a simpler operation to build what is essentially a giant steel-ribbed tent, especially since our Mars colonists would need the open space to stop from going absolutely fucking crazy after a few years of living in a box. If you could get a TBM to operate on Mars it could definitely do some impressive work. Low G would help it to move material along faster.
