This sounds like an interesting experiment, has it been done? 

And can it be done? There are a few issues beforehand. For example: 
* multi-word labels are more likely to contain at least one non-noun. 
* what about "labelese"? It is not something I have studied myself, and I've heard everything from "it doesn't exist" to "labels have their own language".
* to determine word order we need to be able to determine phrases, right? How many phrases per line of Voynichese? Do phrases cross lines?

Sounds very tricky...
