Yes, it's a lot of work, but a man-made moat could be done with enough man power. The hardest part would be finding a water source.
If this is truly going to be home, I would stop at nothing to make sure it's as secure as possible.
They used pits in the Governor's second base (where he lived with Tara and her sister).....similar to a moat.
I get the impression based on comments made in the show that they were able to build the wall because, at the time, there were almost no wallkers around.....but that has changed....so building a moat now mighr be difficult.
