That depends on the ROM/OS. Granted, we're in the Android community, but GrapheneOS uses a hardened rendering engine, and never Chrome's/Android's even if you install them both from the Play Store:

Can you install an alternative webview if you have root/magisk?
Yes you can, DivestOS has one, Bromite (no longer maintained) previously did.
Out of curiosity, why would you want to?
I honestly don't know as rooting and magisk go against the principles of a secure OS that GrapheneOS strives for. At that point, it is no longer GrapheneOS but GrapheneOS-derived, and the devs will not offer support... rightfully so, in my opinion.
Is it possible? I assume it is, but probably very difficult. Has someone gone through the effort to do so? Doubtful as that goes again the target audience of GrapheneOS users.
