Is there a way to insert into a page real HTML

No, there absolutely is not. That would be unsafe: users could insert
arbitrary HTML content in comments and have IE pick it up using IE
conditionals. If there were an actual use-case that was of any value,
we could strip IE conditional comments and let all others pass . . .
which would be safe only assuming there are no other scary abuses of
comments out there, and that we get the conditional comment stripping
right. If there are no use-cases, it's not worth it.
