How to assign a CNAME record to the main domain. I use DDNS, and there they give a domain with a constantly changing IP, so you need to assign exactly the CNAME, and not the A record. 2domains forbids assigning a CNAME record to @, What to do, maybe there are other DNS that allow this?

A couple of years ago I tied CNAME to @ on pp.ua.
I'm sure you can find other DNS.

I'm not sure it's a good idea to allow this binding, as it goes against the RFC. Maybe do it differently, put a redirect? DNS hosts sometimes provide free or extremely cheap redirect hosting.

No way. @ has NS records (at least), CNAME cannot be shared with any other records on the same RR.
