It's certainly possible - you just need to record the song from tape by - for example - connecting the headphone socket of your hi-fi to the mic socket of your sound card, and recording the input to a WAV or MP3.

I may see if I can connect my hi-fi to my sound card and sample them. Will take some doing due to the distance between hi-fi and PC, and the awkward positioning of my PC... but it's not impossible.

The basic tunes are still good - but compared to todays game music, it's poor. And the fact that it's on a worn tape doesn't help!
