I saw, in FTL Profile Editor v24, that Boarding and Ion drones are changed to crew_battle or something similar while they're activated. But, clearly, you can use those drones while having eight crew, which makes me wonder: is is possible to glitch around the 8 crew limit by using crew_battle?

Not within the xmls I think. I doubt the game will except this id for any crew tags. The drones are handled this way when they are active. What exactly would you want to do? Give the ship more crew in events? Or in the ship blueprint? I guess you can just test if that works, I doubt anyone has tried that yet.
