It's been done a fair few time, I've written a short story this way myself, over two decades ago mind you.

The most recent example I can think of is _[World War Z](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_War_Z)_ which, as it is "An oral history of the zombie war", can be considered to be a piece of almost pure dialogue.
