Can I use Raspberry Pi 5 for Linuxcnc + ESP32 + W5500 for generating step pulses

Sorry but i do not use RPI's at all,and that will not change untill their price drops back to under 50$.
 

They'll never be under $50 again. The world has changed, $50 is no longer $50.

That is very true.

Hi Linuxcnc community, 
I have installed OS in raspberry 5 and Instead of using IO expander I want to use individual ESP32+W5500 for every motor and generate step pulses. If this is possible please help me with the steps in achiving it.
Refer the image below and get what I want to achieve

Rather than using many ESP32s, I would try a W5500-EVB-Pico
shop.wiznet.eu/en/w5500-evb-pico.html
and Remora software for RP2040
