This is getting into the area of creating a whole custom ROM rather than just a "driver update package" (though was work on trying to make that possible, I don't know how complete that is, or even if it's still a target for android vendors), but that would require the original ROM to support that method, it's not something that can just be wedged in after the fact. And then you'll need a new release of the drivers compatible with the same method.
Treble on android P will be boot.ing agnostic, meaning that GPU drivers likely won’t tie into kernel modifications anymore. Google has said before updating GPU drivers is a feature they want to add
