No technical reason, but you won't be able to run a compiled binary due to policy. You need to use an interpreter.

I wonder if qemu with cpu=host counts...

Maybe run a VM inside Safari via QEMU and WASM that boots a Linux desktop environment

WASM is indeed one possible workaround. That's how a-Shell [1] manages to include a C compiler and run resulting programs at (I believe) better-than-interpreted speeds.
