See my answer here. Effectively, the answer is "Not yet, but probably eventually, though nobody knows when."

No idea about GStreamer. But eventually, you probably will be able to use WebRTC to do it. – Ken Smith Nov 30 '12 at 08:53

Screen sharing can be done via getUserMedia with the chrome.tabCapture API, but currently only on the Chrome Dev channel: see my answer here.
