Yes, it most certainly can be done so long as there are aerial photos of your town. But it's the LEARNING part of the process that takes time. And that can takes weeks or months depending on your skill level, interest, and creativity. One of the best programs I have found to lay down some photoreal textures is a program called SBuilder. You can lay down some 4.8m terrain using that.
If you want as you said just something other than a crossroad as to where you live, you might try adding your own landclass to the area. YOu basically tell FS9 where you want additional towns, cities or rural areas and you use textures already in the program. Plus it will add houses, trees and buildings. SBuilder and a host of other programs will do this as well.
Since I am on a roll here, a 3rd method would just be to purchase a commercial landclass product that provides more detail than the default flightsim. Several companies make them like FSGenesis. The hard part is finding out if it covers your town or not. Maybe there is a trial period with one of them.
Anywho... good luck!
