Is it possible (or even allowed) to obtain the Eucharist for the sole purpose of Adoration at home?

I think you are asking if one can obtain a Host and do adoration at home. Is that what your are asking?Is it possible (or even allowed) to obtain the Eucharist for the sole purpose of Adoration at home?

If that is what you are asking, the answer is NO.
The exposed Eucharist Adoration at church requiers committed people to guard the Host constantly. We are not allowed to take the Host home.
Eucharist Adoration happens in the church.

Even the Host is not exposed, the Host is in the terbernacle.
Praying in front of the tebernacle with adoration is spending time with Jesus. That is so precious and you will unavoidably be transformed if you do it regularly.
Another thing to help prayer is to read Bible daily.
That is how God is speaking to us.
Eucharist adoration and Bible reading will do good to anyone who is serious about improving his prayer life.

As for not saying specific prayers, it’s absolutely fine - just talk to Jesus in your own words, as your friend!

Yes, praying by the Blessed Sacrament is the same as Eucharist Adoration. In every church, there is a tabernacle, with a red candle light beside it. That means the consecrated Host, Jesus, is in the tabernacle. You kneel or sit there to talk to Jesus, give HIm thanks and praises, tell Him you love Him, that is Eucharist Adoration. You can do Rosary, Chaplet of Divine Mercy, meditation, or any other form of prayer. You can read your Bible, read some books of spirituality, or do mental prayer.How do you do Eucharistic adoration?

You adore him, spend time with Him, enjoy the “being with”.

Here is an abstract I prepared for my CCD students to show you the real presence of Jesus in the Eucharist.
Eucharistic Miracle - Bolsena and Orvieto 1263: Corpus Christi
In 1263, in Bolsena, Italy, Peter of Prague, a priest, was praying for the faith to believe the Eucharist is the true body of Christ while saying a Mass. At the time of the Consecration of the Mass, as he said “THIS IS MY BODY”, the unleavened bread turned into Flesh, and began to bleed profusely. The blood fell onto the Corporal. The priest, shocked and not knowing what to do, wrapped the host in the Corporal, folded the Corporal and left the Altar. As he left, drops of blood spilled on the marble floor in front of the altar.
Peter of Prague immediately went to tell Pope Urban IV who was in Orvieto at the time, which is a short distance from Bolsena. Pope Urban later approved it as a true miracle.
A follower of Blessed Juliana’s contacted the Pope, repeated the request of
Blessed Juliana for a feast day in honor of the Blessed Sacrament. Throughout the next year, the Pope wrote the Papal Bull Transiturus, published on August 11, 1264. That Papal Bull instituted the Feast of Corpus Christi, in honor of the Blessed Sacrament. It is likely that Pope Urban IV had been given the inspiration to institute the feast of Corpus Christi as a result of the Eucharistic Miracle of Bolsena.
In Bolsena the pieces of marble on which the blood spilled were taken up from the floor of the altar, and placed into reliquaries. There are four stones, each showing the blood of the Sacred Host. Three of them were placed in a special altar, called the Altar of the Miracle, in the Church of Bolsena.
People have been known to see the face of our Lord Jesus on the stones. These people have also reported receiving sudden healings.
