To do that you need to convert that to BDS which is recognized by Smartforms (Search for BDS and Image, you would find some hints).

Or, you can generate the Adobe form designed using Adobe Livecycle designer (Tcode - SFP) . In Adobe form, you can include the image from local system or from a URL.

I want to include the binary data at the runtime, so not from the repository

Well, just think about it - what node type could you possibly use in the Smartform for that? Obviously we can only pick from the text node or graphics node. Text node can have either some static text or a text variable, it clearly has no functionality to interpret and present any binary content. Now in the graphics mode do you see any option for "runtime binary string"? I doubt that. So doesn't this pretty much answer the question?

As far as dynamically including a bitmap in the Smartform - Google "smartform bitmap dynamic" finds this document as the first hit:
