I know that later versions of VAX-11 RSX support PDP-11 emulation through software emulation of the PDP-11 commands. Even on VAX processors that don't have PDP-11 hardware emulation.
This PDP-11 software emulation would presumably be missing in earlier versions of VAX-11 RSX but I remember it being present circa 1986 on Microvax II (KA630) hardware which would've been 1985/1986, the same era as the 8200.
