Spectral Associates released a program called "RGB Patch" at the
beginning of 1987 that did a similar thing. It was a memory-resident
utility that you'd load up first. Subsequently, you'd load up your
assembly-language application (e.g. game) and then run it as per
normal. The authors claimed the on-the-fly patching worked with 90%
of applications, even copy-protected ones.
