It is possible to do using Newton Book Maker and NTK, but it's real messy.

I was able to modify one of the icons in the list and have it apply to a
new book. The icons are stored as 1 bit PICT resources, so you have to
make sure that whatever you're pasting back into that resource is the
same format.
If you like, you could send me the icon you want to you as a Photoshop
file or similar, and I'll customize a copy of Newton Press for you.
Let me know.
