No Porting a PS4 game to native PC by running the game's own x86-64 code requires deep console-OS reverse engineering, a PS4 runtime, and a Vulkan video core, which is far beyond vibe coding.
What it would actually take: A real version needs a reimplementation of the PS4 kernel and system libraries, loader and linking for the game's binaries, and a GPU command translation layer (building on shadPS4 work). This takes months to years of work from low-level systems, reverse-engineering, and graphics specialists.
