Aug 8, 2012 at 2:03 comment added Mariano Suárez-Álvarez Related: Jan Šťovíček has a beautiful paper (arxiv.org/abs/0906.1286) where he characterizes the long exact sequences of length six which come from the snake lemma.

Aug 7, 2012 at 17:19 comment added Pierre This is precisely what I meant, thanks Paul! (You can probably re-post this as the answer)
Aug 7, 2012 at 4:19 comment added Paul I understood the question differently: Given $F,E,B$, a map $i:F\to E$, and a long exact sequence of homotopy groups with the map $\pi_q(F)\to \pi_q(E)$ induced by $i$, does there exist a map $p:E\to B$ which realizes this long exact sequence? Any map can be turned into a fibration by replacing the domain by a homotopy equivalent space. So in this interpretation the question boils down to whether the homotopy fiber of $i:F\to E$ is the loop space of $B$. I don't think this is always possible.
