I think this has been tried for decades. Here is the latest serious attempt: (03)

If I remember right, the problem is that the connectome does not include
synapic strength and other important details and that you have to simulate
body and environment in great detail too to get the right inputs and test the
simulation. The chemistry and physics matters - especially with only 302
neurons. (05)
And here is a more rough approach - but with an actual simulation: (06)

Indeed (09)
