Since Alma is aiming to be binary compatible with RHEL I think doing 
this would certainly be possible. You may have to keep local, or propose 
patches to diskimage-builder to add Alma support. Also RDO packages are 
built against CentOS so re-building the RDO RPM's from source on Alma is 
probably required. (Since CentOS-Stream is not binary compatible with 
RHEL, I assume some RDO packages won't work without a re-compile against 
the ALMA libraries)
