Personally,I haven't tried anything like that.
I heared that most of the 16C84 rated at 4MHz will work fine at 10MHz too,
that seems reassuring.

If you are talking about the design of a few circuits: go ahead, it will
work fine in 99% of the cases.
If you are talking about mass production (I assume: not the case), that's
another cup of tea.
1% dropout on each of the 100 components of a device means that less than
1% of the devices will work...
