Could you build this?

No A static recompilation port of an Xbox game needs binary translation expertise for PowerPC code, reverse engineering of the original binary, and emulation of console hardware and APIs.

What it would actually take: The approach is static recompilation: disassemble the Xbox executable, lift PowerPC code to C or x86-64, then reimplement the Xbox kernel and DirectX APIs on PC. This requires compiler and reverse-engineering specialists and substantial time per title.
