Is there a way to dynamically disable 'use strict' and/or 'use warnings' at run-time?

Do not use the -w switch then, use warnings instead: # <- edited, see BrowserUK's correct comment below. 

use strict;
use warnings;
# ...

no strict;
no warnings 'uninitialized'; # only specific warnings switched off.
# un-refined code
use warnings 'uninitialized'; # escape to safety
use strict;

You don't need to switch off strict for the case in question, though.
