The debugger works with the same code you'ld have in real hardware. I.e. if you need the code relocated, it's not the debugger's work to do it for you. Use external tools, like the Hex file generator and hex2bin/bin2hex converters.

I'm sure there are situations where you might want to load data into RAM; eg, to simulate shared memory, or if you're doing a datalogger and want to simulate a large amount of previously-aquired data. But, in answer to the original question, LOAD supports Intel Hex and Absolute Object files only - so you'd have to convert the BIN to one of those. eg, see http://www.keil.com/support/docs/2482.htm (it's for the 8051, but I'm sure you get the idea).
