Theoretically, yes! (Real world wise, I wouldn’t bother/no.)
Reconstructing a game’s online capabilities on Pretendo would be a “challenge”, yet it is up to the core libraries not being completed yet. As we have seen, we do not need the core libraries to be complete/reconstructed, though that would most certainly make development far less complicated, (at least in my opinion).
Overall, you would need knowledge, (or be fluent in) GoLang, reverse engineering, API Handling, requests, authentication and structured development.
As I am not a developer for Pretendo, I couldn’t really say much, though aside from creating a “Wii Sports Club Local Server”, you can actually host a home-server for Pretendo, via Docker and Docker Compose, (developed by @MatthewL246_PNID)
All In All,
Yes, theoretically, though I would recommend just waiting for the game to be released by Pretendo officially, as it would overall mean STABILITY. Stability is key in development and flying into something without full knowledge in a field, (not saying you lack knowledge in the field!), is not advised, and just waiting for the STABLE release would be the smarter choice.
My idea is that you could maybe do some research into the development of Pretendo, cover public code on GitHub to develop an understanding, make some connections and sure, try writing some related code to learn.
