I don't know if you can use third-party compilers but it is definitely 
possible to compile RTEMS without the build process.
I use gcc as crosscompiler but I don't use the tools, BSPs and stuff
like that that come with RTEMS.

I simply dumped the relevant C files into an rtems directory within
the project, listed all the files in the Makefile and created a header 
which defines everything that the proper build process would. Works
well.
