The question is not clear, but what ever it means… this question makes no sense.

If you obfuscate the software, you can just repeat the build (you should have build options to perform build with or without obfuscation).

If you're talking about 3rd-party software, you cannot modify the executable, not even because of obfuscation, but because of signing of the assemblies: should you do any change to binary, it would not work. This is because you should always sign all your assemblies, at least those you deploy.

Same conclusion goes if you don't want to re-build your software by some reason. If you want to modify anything (for example, to make a patch) in the code, anything at all, you should rebuild it. If you do something else (because you do not sign your assemblies) — you're in danger.
