I would try segregating the records to be copied into a
separate physical file and use a DCLF in a CL program to
read the records, concatenate the fields into one long
"string" and use a SNDDTAQ command to populate the data
queue.
But that might be more trouble than its worth when
a high-level language could accomplish the same task ;-)

Subject: [EXTERNAL] Copying records from a *FILE into a *DTAQ
My boss had a weird request yesterday, and maybe it's possible but I've never had the occasion to consider the possibility, but he wanted to copy records from a file/table, probably in flat-fixed form into a dataqueue. I said that although i5/OS is an object OS by some measures, I didn't think there was a way to do that, but I wanted to cover my bases and ask here.
