Can we create or modify a live-distro ?

Is it possible de create or modify a live-distro with a GUI or a CLI software. I know it's possible for arch distributio,; like endeavour OS. But can we do the same thing with the RPM or debian-based distro ?

PCLinuxOS has a tool called MyLiveGTK which creates an iso from your existing system. If I ran my copy of the result, it would have all the software I installed, minus the software I removed, and my configurations. I suspect that there must be similar tools for other distros — or is this one of our special features?

Live distros didn't fall out of the sky. They were made by people. So, there are people who can do this. And so the question comes down to whether you, specifically, can do it. Oh, I don't know you, man. I can't know what you can and can't do.

Both are possible, but creating is likely easier. Look up how the original live mediums are made, and then you can go from there.

In short, yes. You can unpack the ISO, add, change, or delete what you want, then repack the ISO. You'll need to make sure the new ISO is bootable, and isn't too large for your bootable medium.
There are many programs which can do this, CLI or GUI. Check your distribution's wiki, or the Arch Wiki.

I can't think of reason that one couldn't
