Sure you can. For example, Twitch uses RTMP to receive stream data and HLS to distribute it to viewers. If you're going to simply save the stream on disk, then RTMP should be enough. If you'd want to distribute it, then you should use either HLS or DASH.

I just want to receive it, thanks for your reply! Do you know any good RTMP plugins for Flutter?

Unfortunately I don't. You may try to google "Flutter HLS" or "Flutter RTMP", I'm sure there are plugins for that.
