No, this is what you’d do: You’d polyjuice another human into Hermione. Thus, when the imposter dies, there would still be the “dying-soul-magic” of a human dying. (Of course, there are the ethical objections of trading another’s life for Hermione’s, but to be honest, I don’t think that would stop Harry at the moment in the state he is in.
Oh, and you’d use the Imperius curse or something to make the polyjuiced duplicate do the whole “Not your fault” thing. (Hey, if you’re ignoring ethical objections, might as well...)

Does this sound like someone polyjuiced into Hermione to you?
There was a burst of something that was magic and also more, a shout louder than an earthquake and containing a thousand books, a thousand libraries, all spoken in a single cry that was Hermione; too vast to be understood, except that Harry suddenly knew that Hermione had whited out the pain, and was glad not to be dying alone.
Find someone who’s already about to die (a terminally ill patient suffering from the advanced stages of an incurable disease or a condemned prisoner in the ), and use them.
Harry is the only one to witness the ‘dying-soul-magic’ and he has no idea what it is supposed to look like. Adding any sort of magical disturbance to the dying magicked!rat would have the same result from Harry’s point of view.
I would imagine that “dying-soul-magic”, or whatever that was, is impossible to fake (or, at least, really dang hard to) like prophecy magic.

Meh. I’d take the simpler route of confounding my own perceptions.

False memory charm?
