Can I load the modified u-boot binary from the currently running u-boot command line?

Yes, U-boot supports chain loading.

On host machine you can use ckermit[1] program to load U-boot image using serial or you can use tftp to load modified U-boot image at SYS_TEXT_BASE address. Once the image is loaded , you can bootm "SYS_TEXT_BASE".

I think this only works if SYS_TEXT_BASE is a RAM address, which is mostly the case for boards that don't run U-Boot from NOR flash after POR.
