Since there’s monitors that work over USB-C, could one replace the capture card and somehow get the laptop to pull video like a USB-C monitor?

Those USB-C display outputs are real raw GPU output patched through electronically, not like image over USB protocol. They just use the connector, and they can't be captured as USB data.
not really. The video stuff needs explicit hardware support, so the laptop would need to include what's essentially a capture card already. It'd be awesome if vendors did that, but to my knowledge nobody does.
