Maybe if you stick to Adobe's tools.  As demonstrated by this thread,
it's entirely possible to modify such files, even if the currently-easy
ways to do that involve a trip through a completely different
representation.

I find it astonishing that anyone would seriously call any documented
file format read-only.  (If PDF/A isn't documented, then IMO it's not
suitable for archival under any circumstances.  But this thread makes
it sound as though it's documented.)
