If the ECU can be adjusted for tire size, could you "trick" the odometer by adjusting the tire size to compensate for the delta?

Yes. I think that's true. In fact, even on older cars like mine you can get aftermarket devices to spoof the speed sensor signal. For me, it is just cheper and easier to know how off it is and calculate the adjustment.
