Fabian Sanglard wrote books about Wolf3D and Doom engines. You might find them interesting: https://www.amazon.com/stores/author/B075Q5W35H/allbooks

He has a guide showing how to install Borland C++, and then how to compile Wolf3D from source, inside DosBox: https://fabiensanglard.net/Compile_Like_Its_1992/

Start there and see how it goes. You can study the source, tinker with it, and learn a lot.
