Is it possible to exclusively utilize GPU memory for rendering a sizable LAMMPS dump file?

Hi! No, OVITO always keeps a copy of the particle data in host memory (for the current trajectory frame being rendered, at least). Is that something you would like to avoid or why are you asking? Is it because host RAM is more limited than GPU memory in your case?

OVITO release 3.10 now provides the new VisRTX renderer, by the way, which renders on the GPU. But a copy of the data remains in host RAM still.
