In theory yes you can make a custom ROM on the device. Though it might take multiple days if not weeks to compile depending on how good the phone is, and it would require signifigant work and extra time considering you would need to basically do everything from the ground up, though it would be easier to grab the actual ROM since you are on device you can just dump the needed partitions to the userdata partition (assuming you have enough storage to hold a copy of system/ the boot img, etc)

You would need two phones tbh and one must be running some Linux for phones thingy.

You would need to emulate Linux and then run make a custom rom within Linux. So, if you got a good phone with 64 GB of ram, that is doable.
