Yes, you can correct this with resistors - it's a little bit Micky-mouse (compared to just using the correct rated injectors), but can be done no probs.

May I also add though that even if you manage to simulate the correct impedance, a high ohm injector does not have the same stable/quick switching as a low impedance type. As such this can make the injector operate poorly at low injector on times.
