Torpedoes are fired from siege launchers, have no use in PVE and are mostly effective against battlecruisers and larger, but even then benefit greatly from a targetpainter or targetpainter drones.

Without any range bonuses, torps don't hit past 20km. 
Would you not train these for maximum effect & range as part of the requirements to use them for PVE?
With max skills your range on a Golem is 30km, closer to 25 in fact taking your own and targets movement into account. Good luck closing in to that space while tanking their dps. The speed gained in killing the rats will be offset by the time you spend running around getting in range.

Javelins are needlessly expensive and do only a bit more dps than cruise missiles. Afterburner will take ages to get in range and MWD doesn't work in most missions, the 5% missile implants are very expensive and missile rigs gimp your fit.
In short: not practical.

Not practical? Whenever I've read a Golem thread, the torp fit has seemed to be the standard fit for L4s. From playing on EFT, the range doesn't seem to be much of a problem, and Jav torps are cheap relative to faction torps, which are often recommended for Golem.
They also do alot less DPS making them a poor choice in comparison to cruise missiles. Also, there are plenty of rats that will orbit at range way past 30km and in chasing them you will have to get to under 15km to even hit them as they will be moving away at full speed. The time spent racing around the mission will subsequently undo the advantage gained from killing them faster, as well as make it near impossible to do them semi AFK.
