For RPMs no. For Fossology, looking at the requirements, would be very
difficult (of cause you can deal with some sudo conf params) (I'm
thinking to http/postgresql/...)

Then you have to install as well your own apache and postgresql instances 
to support that.

You could use a VM with QEMU to do your tests, in which you'll have root
access.
