pdfTeX supports using named destinations with

    \pdfximage named {<destination name>} {/path/to/file.pdf}

and dvipdfmx supports named destinations with

    \special{pdf:image named "<destination name>" (/path/to/file.pdf)}

(I added the dvipdfmx support a couple years ago, and I documented the
pdfTeX support in its manual at the same time)

LuaTeX doesn't have built-in support for referencing named destinations,
but it's relatively straightforward to implement in Lua. I know all this
because I did exactly this in a package

    https://github.com/gucci-on-fleek/unnamed-emoji

that I never got around to finishing and putting on CTAN/TL.
