Yes, you can. However, before you start implement the Login function, please refer to PlayFab official documentation: Login basics and best practices because we usually won’t recommend using custom ID as the only login authentication
In terms of your scenario, the auto-appending feature should be written on your own in the client. Basically the client will read the input in the text field and append a randomly generated number behind the input string as custom ID. However, it will be tricky to make sure if the generated number is unique, because if the number already exists, the player may directly log into another player’s account. We will recommend to use device ID and login with LoginWithAndroidDeviceID API or LoginWithIOSDeviceID API because usually device ID is unique.
However, I believe what you want to implement can be a unique Display Name. The custom ID and username (PlayFab can use username and password match for login) usually are inaccessible for other players because it is the login identity which only administrator or players themselves can review. It is uncommon to ask players to use identities generated from developers for login, unless it is for special purposes.
In addition, DisplayName In PlayFab is unique by default, and when UpdateUserTitleDisplayName API returns failed, you may generate a new number.
