A similar thing that you can do is just keep around the text of the code that went into the closure. Then you can create a new closure of it in any scope you'd like: 
my $code = q{
   # some generic sub
   my ($param1,$param2) = @_;

   do_stuff($param1);
   do_more_stuff($param2);

   return whatever_you_return_from($param1,$param2);
};

# ...

my $closure_to_this_scope = eval "sub {$code}";

# ...

my $closure_to_this_other_scope = eval "sub {$code}";

That's the beauty of perl: eval gives you dynamic lexical scoping for free. Additionally, closures let you fix a dynamicaly lexically scoped entity to a static lexical scope, as you please! (That's exactly what I've done above.)
