Good question, I still think that you would have a ton of casualties which goes without saying but I dont think the coup would have been entirely successful like they thought. Let's for sake of argument assume that every other clan in the village would be against the Uchiha in this situation and would fight against them for the village. They would be overwhelmed by the massive forces against them in my opinion. Granted we don't know just how many of them had access to the sharingan (but the number couldn't have been very high), and if Itachi and Shisui were like the strongest 2 in the clan at their ages... then the clan would certainly get beat if you ask me when you have an entire clan like the Hyuga in the village. But i do like this scenario and often wonder it myself just how things would play out.
