Maybe not.

For Android:

<https://developers.google.com/web/tools/chrome-devtools/remote-debugging>

Maybe there is a similar option in iOS so that you can debug Chrome on iOS.

You can USB-debug Mobile Safari, but I think you need Desktop Safari to do 
that.  You can try running an older version of Safari for Windows via Wine 
on GNU+Linux, or you can install macOS in a VM.
