No, neither rental car nor bus is an option for this trip. Hokkaido and Honshu are only connected by a train tunnel and car ferries and the trip by car would take more than a day.

You should travel by plane, for sure, and send some of your bags by delivery service:

There are lots of flights between Sapporo and Nagoya, the closest airport to Gifu. If you book one day in advance, you can usually get tickets for around 30,000 yen. Around 38,000 yen for same day tickets.

You might consider buying the airpass. If you are flying into and out of Japan on one of the Star Alliance or Oneworld carriers such as UA, LH, SQ, TG, NH, CX, AA, BA, QF, JL, You can fly 10,000 to 11,000 yen plus the consumption tax per segment.
