When using map files '<<fontfile' should tell the engine to fully embed the font, but since MkIV does not use map files you can't use this. Alternatively, font table passed from lua to pdf backed have an 'embedding' key and setting it to 'full' should fully embed the font, but I don't know if MkIV provides a way to control this.
