No idea what "P2P" means to you in particular.

The ZODB is a mandatory requirement for Plone as storage layer. You may
work on storage layer implementation for the ZODB fulfilling your
requirements (similar to Relstorage implementing a RDBMS backend for the
ZODB). I have strong doubts that a "P2P" or (cloud-ish) backend is
feasible as the ZODB is ACID compatible and ACID is basically something
you can not achieve in the cloud or better spoken in a highly
distributed environment.
