Is there any way that I can create a character using content from the player’s handbook? I’ve bought it irl, is there a function to add that you bought this book content and also be able to use content from the player’s handbook without buying it through dnd beyond?
No there isn't. DNDBeyond is a wholly separate company from any physical book retailer. If you want to create characters using PHB content on DNDBeyond you'll need to either purchase the book on DNDBeyond or purchase individual options from within the PHB on DNDBeyond or use the free homebrew tools to make them yourself from the content in your physical book.
