No, it should not be extremely hard, but it will still be time consuming.
I agree that the feature would be nice, but I don't have time now.

If someone else wants to give it a try: you will first need to add
some CSS code similar to what Jeroen mentions above to your preferred
TeXmacs CSS style (Edit -> Preferences -> Convert -> Html -> CSS stylesheet).
You next might try to add a converter for 'help-balloon' in tmhtml.scm.

Best wishes, --Joris
