Can you generate sprites like call them into existence on the fly as duplicates of other sprites?
Sorry, that is not a feature of the current version of Scratch. There has been talk about implementing it in a future release but I don't know how realistic that is.
The work-around right now is to make as many copies of the sprite as you think you will need manually (with the copy sprite tool) and hide the ones you don't need at the start of the project. Then use the Show block to "bring them into existence" later on.
There are many examples of this technique...here is one
