Writing your own code and executing that is explicitly forbidden. Be it REPLs or compiler suites. That too would have to go through the store. Only interpreters are allowed.
The other issue is obviously that you can’t have an extension developed by person A for an app developed by person B. It’s very common to see mods, plugins, addons whatever you may call them on many other platforms, but Android explicitly forbids this.
