Not really possible, since you don't know what your rating or the rating of your opponent will be at the time the game is complete.
Other sites compute ratings when the game begins (which in my opinion is wrong) instead of when it ends and for that reason are able to show this.

Why is this wrong in your eyes Miguel? I personnaly think that it's logical that once a game is started the rating stays stable. Imagine you're playing against someone with a high rating. He defeats you but loses at the same time against a bunch of other players... So suddenly you lose against a weak player and your ELO gets a deadly blow  .
On the other hand, the ELO should always be in motion   .

Yes, but that's because you see it from the point of view of protecting your rating. I see it from the point of view of making ratings more accurate.

May be u can show these ratings in case the game was to end right now which is subject to change if the ratings of either player changes.

That's a really great idea you have there, Tehan. I hope Miguel introduces it on queenalice  !
