My around-town 3 speed has a Sturmey-Archer AW hub. It would be the best candidate for fixed gear because of its old style horizontal dropouts. I briefly wondered if there were some fairly easy and reversible way to "fix" that hub, but found none.
I suppose I could buy or build a fixed rear wheel. The bike uses old style 27" rims, and I probably have one in my pile-o-junk. But I'd prefer to just try someone else's bike before investing the effort.
