6809E are typically available from synthesizer parts sellers as it was 
used in several 1980's machines.

And then there's System09, a compatible VHDL model of the 6809:

OHO-Elektronik's GODIL module even makes drop-in replacements 
for ancient 5V technology possible:

What is really scarce, though, is the 6309(E), i.e. Hitachis improved 
version of the 6809(E). You probably have to recycle Yamaha DX7s for 
harvesting these...

Plus, 6502 and 6809 are almost sourcecode-compatible, so anything which 
was written for 6502 could be (unelegantly, but easily) automatically 
converted into 6809 mnemonics and reassembled.
