Not Exim's job. RFC 5322 3.6.6 says:

     Note: Reintroducing a message into the transport system and using
       resent fields is a different operation from "forwarding".


Exim can do forwarding, sure. Reintroduction would be some other actor
passing a message to Exim; it'd be that other actor's responsibility to
do all the Resent- stuff. If it can do any of them there's no good
reason it can't do all.

You *could* make Exim do it with sufficient ACL programming in your config,
though I suspect you'd be at risk of an inconsistent set of resulting
headers.
