Would a custom program with emulated USB Gecko work? Something completely artificial would be easier for the end user. but if no one wants to implement it USB Gecko might work right now.
You mean a program that you run on the computer next to Dolphin, that would connect to Dolphin using an emulated USB gecko and could send the actual system time to the game? That sounds ... complicated.

However, knowing that such a feature to get the system time doesn't exist yet, I quickly wrote a PR to add a small interface to Dolphin to allow the running software to request that: https://github.com/dolphin-emu/dolphin/pull/8445
That shouldn't have any unintended side-effects as normal games wouldn't use this interface (as they wouldn't even know it exists) and only software specifically prepared to use that could do so.
