At the cost of another hard drive and using an emergency boot set you should be able to do two transfers using dd to accomplish resizing the root filesystem.

This might depend on the hardware you are dealing with.

systemd-fsck

SYSTEMD-FSCK@.SERVICE(8)				       systemd-fsck@.service					  SYSTEMD-FSCK@.SERVICE(8)

NAME

       systemd-fsck@.service, systemd-fsck-root.service, systemd-fsck - File system checker logic

SYNOPSIS

       systemd-fsck@.service

       systemd-fsck-root.service

       /usr/lib/systemd/systemd-fsck

DESCRIPTION

       systemd-fsck@.service is a service responsible for file system checks. It is instantiated for each device that requires a file system
       check.  systemd-fsck-root.service is responsible for file system checks on the root file system. The root file system check is performed
       before the other file systems. Either service is enabled at boot if passno in /etc/fstab for the filesystem is set to a value greater than
       zero.

       systemd-fsck will forward file system checking progress to the console. If a file system check fails, emergency mode is activated, by
       isolating to emergency.target.

KERNEL COMMAND LINE

       systemd-fsck understands one kernel command line parameter:

       fsck.mode=
	   One of "auto", "force", "skip". Controls the mode of operation. The default is "auto", and ensures that file system checks are done
	   when the file system checker deems them necessary.  "force" unconditionally results in full file system checks.  "skip" skips any file
	   system checks.
