I think it's still possible for the Primarchs to be revived or returned, just look at the Grey Knights and the Custodians, as far as we know, they can still be "produced" up to this point in time, so in terms of genetic lore I don't think the Imperium has deteriorated that much, despite what the "fluff" seems to point out, it's been said that the gene seed used to create the Grey Knights either comes from a personal creation from the Emperor Himself, or the mixing up of the best gene seed traits taken from the loyalist Astartes from the Legions of both sides of the Horus Heresy, also from what I understood about the Adeptus Custodes is that they are produced in a very different way altogether but they still have something more or less equivalent to a gene seed which is supposedly derived from the undifferentiated Primarch gene-stock used by the Emperor although admittedly far simpler than individual Primarch genomes, now back to what I was trying to point out, if for example the Magus Biologis of the Adeptus Mechanicus were to start searching for i don't know, healing factors perhaps in the gene-seed of the Grey Knights and Adeptus Custodes? Then maybe, they can find a way to revive the fallen Gulliman and awaken the sleeping Lion. Also, hmmm, this might be heretical in a sense, but if well, they are able to revive Gulliman and Lion through this process, well, how about revive the Emperor next?
