Could you build this?

No Operating a pirate video streaming APK requires complex video scraping pipelines, high-bandwidth streaming CDN infrastructure, bulletproof hosting, and specialized Android native development.

What it would actually take: This requires building high-throughput video scrapers and scrap-resilient parsers for dozens of third-party streaming hosts, custom HLS/DASH media players in native Android (Kotlin/ExoPlayer), and an offshore CDN network to stream terabytes of pirated media while evading DMCA takedowns and ISP blocks.
