Short version: No, the Custodes wouldn't let you in no matter how rich or impressive you are.

Longer version: Yes, but not directly.

Basically, if you're rich and powerful enough - and we're talking owning multiple gigantic spaceships, and possibly one or more worlds - and also smart enough, you could theoretically get in with the Inquisition. If you can persuade an Inquisitor to make **you** an Inquisitor, then you can petition the High Lords of Terra for an audience with the Emperor. But you'd need a very good reason for them to let you in.

Alternate route: Bribe the right people and have them slip you in with the regular tithe of psychics who are sacrificed to keep the Throne functioning. You'll die pretty much instantly, but the last thing you will see is the Throne. Probably not the part with the Emperor on it - it's a massive device housed in a building the size of a small country - but you'll be closer than the billions of pilgrims who will be crowded outside.
