I have an old android xiaomi phone with 128 GB of storage that I want to use as a music streaming server that I can access from my current phone and computer.

I want to know if this is possible and if it is, can it be done without rooting?

You can run Plex off a RPi and those are like $20

Non-Zero Pi models haven't been even close to $20 for a while now. Any Pi these days is gonna be $60-80 for a fully functioning setup (Pi + SD + case + power adapter), at the minimum. And I wouldn't run Plex off a Pi Zero, those have more or less the same specs as the 1st/2nd gen Pis.
