  I was wondering if it's possible to use rom dump
as binary program
 (loaded with loadbin), perhaps with some "relocations" ? Unfortunately
this is not possible, unless you can disassemble the ROM
and then reassemble the code with the desired "relocation" address
(ORG).  This is also the reason why HP-86/87 binary programs are
incompatible with HP-83/85 machines and vice versa.

A better bet is to try to find a programmable ROM drawer on eBay etc.

Check also www.series80.org for other info on HP 85-86.
