Is it possible to create distrobox image using bluebuild?
Is that supported? i think the difference between custom image and distrobox/toolbox image is they use mutable base and use dnf/apt/pacman to install package.

Not currently, BlueBuild does some ostree-specific tweaks in the generated Containerfile. You're probably just installing packages anyways, so a Containerfile with one custom RUN-command should be enough for most distrobox image building.
It's planned to allow generation of more generic Contanerfiles too, though.
ublue has a good example repo you can fork https://github.com/ublue-os/boxkit

I think you could also use Vib
sure, if you dont mind learning something that also uses something called recipes, but they work sligtly differently. they have some good debian-specific modules too
