It's possible, but not because space gets warped, by mass that is. How much it gets warped helps determine how massive the warping body is, such as a star. However, the size of the universe, as in the number of light years it is across, is determined using other phenomena.

No because not all parts of the universe is touched by light. like black holes have no light around them they just eat the light and the universe has no end you would be measuring forever

No, because you have no space that is unwarped by your model to compare it to.
Even if you could, you'd only measure the total mass of the universe, not its size.

Well, any masses between you and the source would affect it and since we don't know exaclty what all of those masses are, it would be practically impossible. Is it bending b/c of dark matter? Because of "the universe"?

it is not possible to measure what we dont know,because of chaos.
