Use form field type of Joomla outside XML

Question

I'm developping a component. Inside a tmpl of my administrator component, I want to use the form field type from this page => https://docs.joomla.org/Form_field

For example, I want to use this one => https://docs.joomla.org/Menuitem_form_field_type

Is it possible ?

I use the latest version of Joomla (3.4.3)

You can try use something like this (although this doc is for custom field): https://docs.joomla.org/Creating_a_custom_form_field_type#Not_linked_with_a_form
