I want to know if it’s possible to have a custom board with different starting positions from that of in the normal game, similar to this video: https://youtu.be/Jmwk4ufcdyE?si=Avjrj45IQ4Mh-jx-

No, playing against someone with a custom setup is yet to be a feature. Sorry!

If you're in the same room, you could turn off all the features you don't want and take turns moving pieces.

For the situation in the video check out
