Didn't see, but I think it is possible. The idea of virtual president and other politicians of Russian Federation was even a part of plot in popular "Generation П" novel by V.Pelevin long ago. A couple years ago even a movie by that novel was filmed with same thing in plot. So, it is not something new at all.

However, the theory that there are clones or actors that plays the role of Putin is much more popular among Russian conspiracy theorists.

As for me, in the past I was into that theories, but now I think that it absolutely does not matter, if Putin real, CGI, clones or actors, because it does not matter who you see on TV, only whose orders are carried out and with what results.
