Depends on what you consider to be 'great' gas mileage and on what you are willing to spend. But yes, I would bet that you could meet those needs in a car!
We have a MINI Cooper Clubman on order and while I can't say for sure, I'm guessing we will be able to fit two bikes in the back, particularly if we are willing to remove the front wheels. It's rated at 36 HWY, it's 4-cyl and if it's anything like my old MINI, it should do great in the snow. They also just introduced a clean diesel version of it that gets 56 mpg (in Europe), so there is hope for the US eventually...
Came back to add that there are probably lots of cars that qualify if you are willing to take the wheels off the bikes. If not, then yeah, you might be dreaming a bit! ;-)
