Even from say a Gmoccapy Python screen handler?

No, the GUIs have file access, just like all the non-realtime parts of LinuxCNC.

The delineation between realtime and non-realtime is roughly documented here:

The component labeled "EMCIO" in that diagram reads the tool table file, and makes the parsed tool information available to the rest of the system (via NML).
