You can't build templates from code - this can only be done from XAML.

If you dynamically generated the template XAML in your code, you could load it as described here.

I suspect you'll find yourself opening a whole can of worms if you go down this route. As an alternative, you could predefine a set of templates, and choose the correct one dynamically at runtime, as described here
