And what would be the benefit of that?

Plan 9's 8c and Go's 8c are different programs. Different calling
conventions, different output. Right now Go's 8c uses liblink and
generates machine code. .8 files cannot be consumed by Plan 9's 8l.
Even before liblink there were serious incompatibilities in the object
files.

8c is going away soon anyway, after 8g is rewritten in Go.
