Not without regenerating the code tree. LLVM supports JIT compilation
on the major supported architectures (though not on all of them IIRC).
And of course you can use the reflection APIs if you target JVM or
CLR. There are also embeddable C (though currently not C++) compilers
like libtcc and also embeddable assemblers.
