definitely I am looking for a step-by-step explications on how make (duplicate a site or make a brand new one) a site domain and hosting on tor dark web.
The Tor project has a brilliant step by step at https://community.torproject.org/onion-services/setup/ which should help get you started.
how can I setup a .onion site with a custom domain (a copy of my site in this case) in the darkweb?
You can generate .onion addresses en-masse till you find one you like; https://community.torproject.org/onion-services/advanced/vanity-addresses/
will it work on linux only? would it be the domain only or the hosting too?
Accessing onion services can be done on any device that runs Tor and/or the Tor Browser. The Tor daemon can run on Linux / Windows / *BSD, Android etc. Onion Services are a transport layer, you'd need a httpd to do the hosting/serving of the website itself.
does this mean that the site would be hosted in a server INSIDE my own pc?
If you want it to.
