Akin to what 96e0294f0892 ("Add env gen to inject full Gentoo PATH to
services") in gentoo-systemd-integration does?

Unfortunately the answer is 'no', because gentoo-profile-env.conf is not
an interactive script, it is just a systemd configuration file.

It's not really maintaining the information twice. The information is
maintained at a single point: /etc/env.d
And from there is is transformed by env-update already into two
different formats:
- /etc/profile.env
- /etc/csh.env

And with that change additionally into
- /usr/lib/environment.d/gentoo-profile-env.conf
