Is it possible to create something like swiftkeys for Andriod with the Titanium cross-platform development framework? If so, do you know of any examples where this kind of thing has been done before?
Titanium create custom keyboard module

I do not think this is possible in a sufficient way. Even if you are able to manage top open the app as a partly shown activity (a keyboard should not use all available space ^^) you still have one problem: Titaniums touch gestures are very likely to be delayed. This can be very frustrating in a normal app but a keyboard like SwiftKey would be not usable (typing would still work).
If you are only going to support Android anyway why don't you develop for Android natively?
One of the main objectives of Titanium is to code once and use across different platforms. But in this scenario, I would assume that even-though you would be using titanium, you would have to use custom Native modules, for each OS that you would be working on. I assume that there would not be much room for code-sharing, and I would highly recommend you to go Native for this kind of app.
If you still do insist on using Titanium, you can probably look into modules as such(iOS only): https://marketplace.appcelerator.com/apps/1422?restoreSearch=true#!overview
