You could dead-head it and put it on the Feed line close to the pump so that you have a very short return line.

Meaning mount the regulator right into the return port of the fuel cell and then my feed into it when I come back from rails?

No, you feed into it right after the pump, and then the return line doesn't have very far to go to return to the tank.

Its placed on the feed line, not the return.

This is how 99% of returnless setups are done from the factory. A lot of those times, the regulator doesn't even make it out of the tank.
