That's not how unix's work.  Packages follow the fhs (see man hier(7)).

The other other place would be to recompile it yourself and put it in
/usr/local (but it still goes into /usr/local/bin, with libs in
/usr/local/lib), or you could put it in /opt with /opt/[package]/usr/bin
and /opt/[package]/usr/lib.

So the question is why would you go to this effort.  You'd have to redo
all the work every time it needs upgrading.
