can it be customized in Brave?

Yes, Brave has all the same functionality as uBO. There are pre-enabled lists. You can use custom lists. You can block custom domains. etc.

Forgive me, I'm not a Brave power user, so I don't recall. Does Brave have anything resembling uBlock's "Element picker mode" and "User rules" to make it easier to build and test blocking rules?

I maintain my own block list on codeberg and it would be a pain in the ass to have to work outside the browser, push to git, and force sync the browser just to refresh and find out if something worked.
