I still find it unclear what you want to achieve.

Would it be okay, for instance, to edit with Emacs in one buffer and
have a separate libreoffice window update at the same time?

There are several tools that works like this, and it can be done with
varying degrees of finesse.

I have used the approach on several occasions;

- A publisher wanted a Libreoffice compatible document, but I prefered
  to work in org-mode in Emacs.

- My own experimental "Inkmacs" integration between the graphics editor
  Inkscape and Emacs.  

And just to repeat, it's not a novel idea, and many tools work like this.
