Is there any way possible to convert data stored on a subscriber server into data that could be used to create a new publisher in the event of a catastrophic event at my publisher site? Think major fire/earthquake that takes out the site that is hosting both my publisher server and my backup.
I'm trying to come up with a disaster recovery plan where I could just use data already replicated to another site (away from danger) as the source material to restore my publisher.
The alternative is to take an ADMS backup from the publisher site and ship it to offsite storage to protect against this scenario. This plan has it's own issues (frequency, cost, etc).

No, you cannot recover a Publisher from Subscriber data.
The Publisher must be restore using a Publisher backup.
