I'd have to wonder why you'd want to do that.  You might as well do
Linux from scratch, or pick on of the other smaller distros which don't
use a package manager.

On the other hand, if you mean adding packages to a Fedora system, and
those additional things not being RPM packages, then of course you can
do that.  Just the same as you can with any Linux distro.  But it's up
to you to figure out how to add anything additional that they depend on,
that you don't already have.
