You could line the tire with just about anything, so long as 1) it won't pinch or poke into the tube, and 2) that the tube can inflate as needed. It concerns me a little that the tire, itself, is cracking, especially if it is enough to pinch and damage the tube. If it were me, I'd be looking around for a different tire, as the tire will most definitely fail when it will cause you the absolute most pain!! However, I might be willing to try to find a smaller turf tire that would snugly fit inside, cut off the bead, then have your tube inside the inner tire. The inner tire would help distribute any pressure, would help prevent punctures, and would provide ultimate protection for the tube.
Now let me say this - I'm only theorizing here. Have never done anything like this and not real certain it "can" be done. I've heard of doing this without a tube, with the outer tire bead making the seal, but never with a tube. ...But if one were very careful putting it together, I think it might could work.
