I’ve read all the rules I could get my hands on regarding USATF rules regarding music/headphones but I cannot find any rules that apply to receiving a qualifying entry to the Olympic trials in the marathon.

I don't see why not. But in a race why would you want to listen to music?

First, I could not qualify without music, pretty sure I could not qualify with it!
I believe the USATF head phone rules only apply to Championship races. RDs in other races have discretion.
So it appears the answer is no...
