No Porting an Xbox 360 game to Switch requires recreating the console engine and graphics pipeline from decompiled or reverse-engineered code, which is deep systems and reverse-engineering work.
What it would actually take: A real port needs an understanding of the Xbox 360 binary formats, PowerPC code, and the game engine, plus a Switch homebrew toolchain (NVN graphics, Horizon OS). Recompiling or emulating the engine and replacing Xbox-specific subsystems is a large, expert-level effort, and the project as stated is build tooling only without game data.
