Why Not? This one is water powered. See the Scotters family setting it up in their YouTube videos, one of which I’ve included below, The images are from an earlier video. The generator is Australian I think. Using the water is their method of powering it, but on the end of an electric motor the power would be consistent, and regulated, to provide constant hassle free drive. All it needs is a proper starter to give it the initial revolution speed to begin the electricity generating. Once it starts the motor itself will do the rest. I can’t see reproducing a generator for the end of a motor as being a problem. That coming from an old man who finds it hard enough to get into or out of his new raising and reclining electric recliner chair, but I manage. Note: Get self powering electric motors to work and you will end all wars with free power for all, and so much more.
Just per chance some clever person, or persons, decides to create self powering electric motors it might be noted the importance of the cooling fans always to be found on or in electric motors and combustion engines. If you don’t understand the need for them just try removing one from inside a small angle grinder and using it. If you are stupid enough to try it, within five minutes it will be too hot to hold without gloves, and in ten minutes it would be too hot to hold with gloves, and probably run no more thereafter. Instead take my word for it. Not knowing the importance could prevent an inventor from being successful. What I am saying is a self powering electric motor would require either one suitable fan with vents through from one section to the other, perhaps even channels in the casing, or two separate fans. One for the drive motor section, and one for the power generator section. Don’t expect continued success without appropriate cooling and air venting, because ten minutes or less is your limit.
