You don't choose a feat during character creation, one is simply tied to your background (which is what you choose). DnDBeyond applies the corresponding origin feat automatically upon background selection, it's not an additional step.
You do if: 1) you are human 2) you are using the legacy Custom Origin 3) you are using most any legacy background (custom or otherwise) 4) you are using the custom background rules from the DMG
So you do not if you only have the 2024 PHB per the title?
The 2024 PHB has humans, who get an origin feat as a species feature. (Not even "variant" this time around.)
But, per the actual topic, you are limited to Origin Feats (even with all the legacy or custom options), which don't include half feats.
If using any of the 2024 feats, they have a restriction of being level 4+, so I think even you found an option that was not restricted to Origin feats, you would also have to pick a half feat that hasn't been updated.

The post that all of this was in response to was suggesting that someone might have gotten an unusually high ability score by taking a non-origin feat at character creation by mistake.
