Is it possible to run firmware from an Android device in an emulator on a PC?

I welcome everyone!
Interested in the question, is it possible to run the firmware from the device in the emulator on the PC? How?
It’s just that in the process of creating the firmware, I want to immediately see the result on the PC screen (that is, the system is loading), so that every time I change the firmware, I don’t want to reflash the device, I don’t want to torment the device.
Thanks to

In general, no, because of the difference between emulated hardware and real hardware (just like you can't run the firmware of one device on another device).
If the planned changes in the firmware are independent of the hardware of the device, you can take the emulator's firmware and make the same changes in it, then they can be seen and debugged in the emulator on the PC before being introduced into the device's firmware.

Mobile devices do not have a Plug'N'Play bus system that would automatically detect and configure individual device devices, so firmware is released for each device separately, and the necessary drivers and settings are hardcoded in them. Therefore, if you want an emulator for a specific device to run its firmware, you will have to write it yourself if there is no ready one.
