There are (at least) two ways:
1. Create an empty file (b) containing only
<!-- -*- mode: Text; coding: utf-16-be; -*- -->
and cat the original file (a) into that (cat a >> b).
2. Temporarily set:
(setq default-buffer-file-coding-system 'utf-16-be)
(set-default-coding-systems 'utf-16-be)
(prefer-coding-system 'utf-16-be)
(Copy into *scratch* buffer, mark region, eval-region.)
