I wonder whether I could ask a silly question: is there any feasible way that an app using the LCL can "re-skin" itself, i.e. switch to a different widget set such as nogui, without restarting?

I don't think so, and I don't see the point. For me the question is whether an application can start without an interface to a GUI infrastructure (such as "X") is found in the system.

It was a general question prompted by discussion elsewhere. Basically, could a computer switch its role from being attached to a large desktop monitor to using an internal PDA-type screen, with running apps tracking the change and adjusting their UI appropriately.
