Could I set up Hyperion in a docker container / VM on my home server and connect the ESP board to my lights/power supply/capture card and have the ESP communicate with Hyperion on my server through WiFi or Ethernet?

Would I be able to plug the USB from my capture device into the microUSB of the ESP so it can capture the screen to output the correct colors? I currently have my Raspberry Pi set up like this, but I am not sure if the ESP boards work the same way.

I'm about to be building a home server and would like to run Hyperion on my server rather than my Pi.

It seems like most people that have this setup use an Android screen grabber app. I was wondering, could I plug my capture card into the ESP 8266 via microUSB and have it capture the video like I'm currently doing with the Pi? Would I be able to wire it like the image below?

My current setup is:
