This is not possible, sorry. Installation prefix needs to be determined at build time, same as for all the other software on your system.

Trying to build WebKit using a live USB is not advisable, but I suppose it's not impossible if you have sufficient RAM. Good luck.

You're not intended to specify locations to load dependencies via environment variable at runtime, but you can do so using LD_LIBRARY_PATH I suppose.

None of this is possible, sorry.
