Is there an acceptable means to write self-modifying code on the Amiga?

Assuming for the sake of argument that I have a good reason to do such
a thing (and there's a good chance I don't), can I do it without risking
future compatibility?  My current plan is to select one of a few possible
versions of the code at the beginning, and then patch the code to use the
appropriate version.  It would be done once, during initialization, so 
performance at this point is entirely unimportant.  What I envision is an
operating system call to clear the instruction cache, or do nothing if there
is no cache.  Surely something like this is done by the loader, right?

Please, don't tell me the evils of self-modifying code, I'll only use it if
I have to.  Pretend this question is entirely academic.
