No, because shared libraries must be -fpic/PIC and as you note

and .data.rel.ro can have relocs.

Choose your poison. :)

It is possible, but will break function pointer comparisons if a pointer to foo
is passed between the shared lib and executable in either direction, since the
address of foo in the shared lib and the address of the same foo in the
executable will be different.
