C# Load all assemblies from encrypted zip package and run the app from package using runner app

I have a requirement where I am writing C# console app; which is a runner app; which downloads the encrypted zip package from provide url (and has an entry assembly info and includes all files required to run that package app).

  1. I have to download and store encrypted zip package somewhere in temp (done)
  2. I have to unzip the package in memory (done)

Now, I have to load those assemblies in memory and have to run the app with entry point inforation (dotnet xyz.dll) without storing any of the package files anywhere on the disk...

Is this possible?

using Lorikeet.Core.Extensions;

namespace Runner
{
    internal class Program
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            IDictionary<string, byte[]> data = new FileInfo(@"2024.05.03.1142.zip").SharpUnzip();

            // Here I get all 71 files including "xyz.dll"
            // To Do ... ?? ... What's next I should do?
        }
    }
}

Note 1: encrypted zip package app is written fully using Dependency Injection so it should resolve all the assemblies it requires which are also part of the package.

Note 2: I have to make this work on .net8.0 and requirement is to be able to run on Windows, Mac and Linux.
