Would it be possible to design a circuit that could replace the TXCO (28.8Mhz) of a RTLSDR dongle by replacing it with a signal generated from a 10Mhz reference signal, coming from a GPSDO?
And what kind of components could do the job?

I would recommend using a PLL chip that is capable of generating a 28.8 MHz output and can do so with a 10 MHz input.
Take a look at http://www.analog.com/en/products/clock-and-timing/plls.html . The ADF4360 could be a good choice.

One should just remember that phase noise of PLL might be higher than one of the crystal itself. – BarsMonster Apr 26 '16 at 22:58
