It is, in order to do that you have to pick one of the following methods:
1-. Create a bat that loads up dolphin along with your game of choice (if you don't know how google it, it's pretty easy) save the bat and convert it to an exe, open your nvidia geforce experience panel in your PC and under gamestream click the "+" symbol to add a game, add the exe you created and then once you open tegra zone on the shield you can launch that game as any other PC game. You can configure controls normally as dolphin detects the shield as an xinput controller. You can alternatively add the exe to steam, and launch steam on the tegra zone, then run the game from steam's big picture mode.
2-. Make your shield stream your entire desktop (done by adding mstsc.exe on your system 32 folder as a game, the same as you did above) and then just launch the game like you normally would from your desktop and play on your shield. This isn't as comfortable as just pressing a button to launch the game, but it's a more "direct" approach.
It works pretty well and provided you have a good router the quality should be high enough that it almost looks as if its running natively (with no compression artifacts), thus making dolphin (which already runs bad enough in recent revisions) run on the shield natively kind of pointless, unless you want to play on the go that is, and can't stream.
Note that by using method number 2 you can pretty much play any game so long as your PC can, including any emulators of your choice, as you can use xpadder to bind the controls to a keyboard if whatever emulator you're using doesn't support xinput or does not detect the shield controls for some reason.

Not necessarily current, I've been using older builds and they all work fine, as fine as they do on your PC that is.
