Yes, this can currently done by :-

1) Building the library (source or binary) into the base firmware image like
SRC, mixer etc is today.

2) Building the library as a separate module that is stitched into the FW image
and loaded with base FW (like boot loader on APL/CNL).

and step 3 is work in progress (in module branch)

3) Building the library as a separate module that is loaded and linked at
runtime (like Linux kernel modules).
