Sadly, you can't, but most android VPN software will let you set the DNS servers and you can point to an advlocking resolver.

Can those DNS settings point to an adblocker app running on localhost? I'm not sure how well this solution would work with captive portals though.

Unsure if Android's sandboxing would prevent this or not - I've never tested. It's theretically possible if sandboxing doesn't interfere or can be bypassed.

If you want to control it yourself maybe consider a pi-hole or similar?
