Yes, name the macro ( C-x C-k n ) and insert it in some file
with insert-kbd-macro . After that it becomes a callable function/command.
-> (NAME)

This requires the emacs instance, in which this is later invoked, to have
the same commands bound to the same keys as the instance where the macro was created.

I am afraid writing a generic macro, which would transform a kbd-macro into a
bindings-agnostic function is no trivial task.
