Could you build this?

No The listing sells a pre-activated desktop copy of CATIA, a proprietary commercial CAD system, rather than an original product, and a real equivalent needs a geometric modeling kernel built over decades.

What it would actually take: A real CAD system needs a B-rep geometric kernel (such as Parasolid or ACIS), constraint solvers, parametric feature trees, and file-format compatibility with industry standards. That takes a large team of graphics and CAD specialists working for years, so vibe coding cannot substitute for it.
