Are you sure there is no BDM connector somewhere (or 10 "unused"
solder pads or so) ?

It depends. Ir may be possible, or may be not (some may be hidden
under the CPU, and there is no way to contact themin such a case).
And it depends on how much effort you put into this - and if the box
is worth such an effort.

Without a detailed hardware documentation (read: schematics) and/or
sources for the existing software it will be definitely non-trivial
to get anything else running on such a board.
