It is still possible to extract a .deb into a path using dpkg -X - the
extract doesn't need to execute anything inside the .deb so it can be
done on any architecture (this is how multistrap works). It just leaves
you with a filesystem tree of binaries (.so, .a, .h etc.) which you can
put into a tarball and copy over.

Overall though, it sounds like the combination of lack of interest in
ia64 generally, uninterested maintainers for the box and restrictive
user policies means that you really ought to find a way to do the task
on a different machine. People are deliberately putting barriers in
your way - find a different way that doesn't rely on ia64. This has
nothing to do with Debian or Emdebian and not much to do with static
linkage support, it has everything to do with how this machine is
maintained and what the admins are allowing you to do. If you are not
even allowed to create a minimal debootstrap, then find a different
machine and give up on this pointless exercise.
