Would it be feasible to turn human corpses into diamonds?

Here’s my reasoning behind this. The way I see it, humans are carbon-based, and diamonds are made of compresses and superheated carbon. So, could we take corpses and put them through the same process, yielding results of transformation into diamond? I’m sure eccentric wealthy people love having jewelry to remember their relatives or beloved pets. To conclude, I have a few questions: can we create diamonds with this method, how big would they be, and is it legal/morally acceptable?
