Absolutely, that seems to be the only way. It's exactly what DSP56300 does.
The JP-8000 is an entirely different animal. It has two bespoke mystery chips and an obsolete CPU. For them to remake it using firmware and documentation they would need to create an emulator for the bespoke chips and the obsolete chips
Penalty is CPU usage and lack of optimization (that's why Waldorf didn't want to collaborate), but I think, many people would put up with these issues just to have JP-8000 in VST Image may be NSFW.
Clik here to view.
Unfortunately, it's quite possible that complete documentation on JP-8000/8080 is not preserved, and if some important details are missing, there is no way to create the emulator Image may be NSFW.

That's too bad, because this way JP would be preserved in digital form (hypothetically) forever...
At least Virus & Nord are "resurrected".
