I've never tried it but I assume you can. At source.android.com there's instructions on how to set it up

I think Google only supports building on i386 and x86_64. See screenshot of the prebuilt folder

If you could compile those binaries for Darwin ppc and get the build system to use it, then in theory it should work

No. But you don't want to anyway it would take days, literally. You can use connectbot to ssh to a server though.

ohh well lol thanks might as well use a computer haha
