One could achieve this by threading a bolt smeared with margarine onto the nuts to be fixed in place.   Once the thickened epoxy cured, the bolts would be easily spun out.  They’d leave casts of their threads before and beyond the nuts...

You might even use large washers or something else to hold in the nuts.
