I admit, I don't understand what you really want to achieve, but ..
To call a BIF, whose name is to be constructed during run-time, you might
run the equivalent String method, and/or (pre-) define/run "bif" routines.
Something like this:
~~~~
name = "reverse"
say 123~send(name)
name = "time"
bif = .Routine~new("", "return" name || "(arg(1))")
say bif~call("n")
~~~~
