Let me rephrase: you disabled every thing in a bootloader which can be
accessed only locally and provided functional to nuke complete system
from linux which can be accessed locally and remotely?
I assume, it would make sense to review the thread model of this project.

Any way. "is it possible to run barebox from linux", the answer would
be: theoretically it should be possible to do it from kexec. I never
tried it before.
