It is very risky to say that anything is impossible in linux; it usually
turns out that there are at least three ways to do what one at first
thinks impossible. My first reaction to your problem was to suggest
several files to switch to ~/.Xmodmap, and then find out if a SIGHUP to
X would make it reread its config.
Much easier, by appearances, is Tony's suggestion. A quick look at
";h keymap", leading to ";h mbyte-keymap", looks very promising, not
least since there are many ready-to-use mappings:
$ locate -r 'keymap.*vim' | wc -l
130
That, though, only maps in Vim, and only during text insertion.
(which may be just what you want)
If cross-application mapping is desired, though, then an alternative to
~/.Xmodmap is to just execute (several of) something like:
$ xmodmap -e 'keycode 91 = 0x2c' # Change numeric pad '.' to ','
in a shell script, after using xev to elucidate the keycode and keysim of
all the keys you want to remap.
For me, this reverts the above mapping:
$ xmodmap -e 'keycode 91 = 0x2e' # Change numeric pad ',' to '.'
OK, that's three ways. Time to stop.

I have a hack to ease switching keymaps:
