You can use the initialize pattern to inject any value into a requirejs module (aka 'dependency injection').

Do a require call anywhere in your code:

var MyBackboneModule;

MyBackboneModule = someWayToGetAReferenceToIt();

require("module", function(Module) { 
  Module.initialize(MyBackboneModule);
});

With module.js file defined as

define([], function(){
   var BackboneModuleDoingThisAndThat;

   function initialize(pBackboneModule) {
      BackboneModuleDoingThisAndThat = pBackboneModule ;
   };

   function doSomething() {
      var x = BackboneModuleDoingThisAndThat.computeThis(42);
   };


   return { 
      initialize: initialize
   };
});
