Hi SHCNakamura , I don't think there's a way of dynamically creating a MS Form. If I were needing to ask questions or capture data where options or questions varied I would consider using a PowerApp over MS Forms.

No. I'd like to edit or add questions in forms using Microsoft Forms action etc.

SHCNakamura there is no trigger or action in Power Automate to create forms or questions. The only one is for when a new response is submitted.
You asked "Or can I refer to some data in an existing form and embed it in a question?" No, Forms is a very simple product and you can't reference other data, pre-populate anything or embed anything in a form.
You've asked similar questions both here and in the Forms forum with basically the same response. I think you'd be better looking at something like Power Apps for your form.

I am very sorry for the additional question.
I examine and consider Power Apps, but I came up with good idea.
I'm sorry for overlooking the sentence "you'd be better looking at something like Power Apps".
Is it difficult for me to do with Microsoft products?Best regards.

SHCNakamura Power Apps is a Microsoft product and one of the Office 365 apps, like Forms but you can do a lot more.

I'm sorry to ask a similar question.
I would like to examine PowerApp from scratch.
