So, two issues:

No one's done an XIP kernel. It's hard to run Linux because it's going to have to load every copy of ever program all the way into memory, since it can't share any memory without XIP.

It's just really hard to run modern Linux without an MMU, since things like mmap are a little weird. While almost all features will work fine, there's likely to be a handful of oddities with things like shared memory.

Dynamic linking is one of those weird things. While there's no reason ELF's couldn't be loaded without an MMU, no one has written the MMU-less ELF loader.

There's nothing fundamentally blocking dynamic library usage (sharing code in memory) but people just haven't done it.
