Chicken noodle soup

Can I cut up the chicken in cubes and boil in the broth and not take out. Then just add egg noodles to the pot. Or even cook the chicken before and cut up while simmering the veggies

If you boil the chicken already cut up, there's a real good chance it will fall apart and just disappear in the broth.
When I make mine I cut up a whole chicken, or better yet, a baking hen like I was going to fry it in individual pieces. I lightly brown them in a bit of oil and when done with the chicken I'll add my vegetables to the pot---onion, celery, carrots, garlic, bay leaves, etc. and then add water or stock to the pot and put the chicken pieces back in to finish cooking for about 1 1/2 to 2 hours.
Then remove the chicken pieces, pull the meat off the bones and break it apart and while doing this, I'll put my pasta in the pot with the fire off and it will cook due to residual heat. When the pasta is done, I'll add the chicken back to the pot and check it for seasoning as far as salt and pepper and adjust from there.
That way, the chicken in the soup doesn't fall apart and disappear.

Assuming you mean raw chicken OP? Yes. I mean it’s basically chicken broth, chicken, noodles, and vegetables. You can do it any number of ways.
I buy a roaster chicken and roast it in the oven, then make a broth from the carcass. You can also get a rotisserie certainly. There’s definitely more flavor with a rotisserie at least then just using breast meat especially if just boiled. But your method of just boiling everything will end up with a chicken soup of some sort.

Yes, especially if you're not going to serve it immediately.
Once the chicken is fully cooked, add the noodles and simmer for about 1-2 minutes. Place a lid on the pot & remove from heat. Allow the noodles to rest in the hot broth for an additional 3-5 minutes.
Remove lid & check for doneness. Replace lid if noodles require more cooking for your preferred texture.
I like my egg noodles to have a bit more chew to them. I find that egg noodles require less cooking time than the 6-8 minutes suggested on the packaging.
