*> Is this possible?*

Yes, but you can't do it silently...

how?

Use PackageManager to determine if a package exists.  If it does not exist,
display a dialog telling the user they need to download an additional app
from the market.  Provide a button that launches the Market with the app URL
so they can download and install it.
