The basic problem with that idea is getting White colour.

When researchers were originally looking at designing the White LED,
they tried combining Red, Green, and Blue LED's (just like the RGB
pixels on a TV screen), but just couldn't get White colour.

They eventually came up with white LED's by coating Blue LED's with
white phosphere (like in flourescent lights).
