    Not without losing brightness. White LEDs work that way and are less bright than an uncovered LED of the same power. Some of the light from the LED becomes waste heat instead of light when the phosphor absorbs it.

    Also, not without losing response time. Part of the point of using LEDs for displays is that they can change brightness very quickly.
