But what if my GUI application is not running? If the user has made its icon persistent in the Dock, is it possible for the background application to access this icon/dock tile and alter it? I could search the Dock's plist for my application, but I'm not sure having found it what I could do, if anything.

No, I don't think there's any way to do that (well, except maybe by changing the actual contents of the app's .icns file for its application icon, and perhaps re-registering it with LaunchServices, and perhaps force-quitting the Dock).
