With a GNU C library patch:
Yes. The only (small) changes needed for n32 are related to Glibc,
since the R5900 does not implement DMULT etc. in hardware. The attached
patch (see below) traps these instructions, but the Glibc patch proposal
(not yet submitted) will instead emulate them, which is believed to be
faster (with actual hardware; with QEMU it would most likely instead be
significantly slower since QEMU would need to emulate this emulation).

Yes, GCC emits R5900 o32.

I suppose you mean
https://github.com/frno7/gentoo.overlay/tree/master/app-emulation/qemu-mipsr5900el
that is my QEMU overlay (having this patch in the "files" directory)
for Gentoo?

Sounds good, although I'm not familiar with Docker myself. A person named
TobiX has also made an image for R5900 cross-compilation:

There are tests for the MMIs PCPYUD, PCPYLD, LQ and SQ as well

https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2019-01/msg02517.html
although, as previously suggested, I'm happy to postpone the MMIs.
