It may be possible to federate with other i2p instances, if not, I'm guessing it would require fairly simple code changes to lemmy to be able to point to other .i2p addresses.
To federate with clearnet, I think an instance would need to kind of act like a bridge that uses both clearnet and i2p; so it wouldn't be "hidden." I see there is also an exit node network (ran by StormyCloud) on i2p now, but that may be too slow for federation.
Edit: I imagine most clearnet instances would not want to federate with a darknet instance due to the higher probability of illegal content being posted.
