I don't see anything inherit to Go that would prevent it. gc even added rudimentary support some time ago, fostering the addition of the plugin package[1], but those doing the work ultimately determined that it wasn't useful enough to dedicate further effort towards improving it.
There was a proposal to remove it, but it turns out that some people are using runtime library addition, and so it remains.
