You can try to store the png file in an array of chars, then feed the data 
in that array to a GdkPixbufLoader.  Something like this:

GdkPixbuf *
get_my_pixbuf (void)
{
  static const gchar data[] =
    { 0x89, 0x50, 0x4e, 0x47, /* ... the rest of the png file ... */ };
  GdkPixbufLoader *loader;
  GdkPixbuf *pixbuf;

  loader = gdk_pixbuf_loader_new ();
  gdk_pixbuf_loader_write (loader, data, sizeof data, NULL);
  pixbuf = gdk_pixbuf_loader_get_pixbuf (loader);
  g_object_unref (G_OBJECT (loader));
  return pixbuf;
}
