Yep! The idea of Grafana OnCall is to help you to group, deduplicate, route & deliver to Slack/SMS/Phone alerts from any sources. It could be a CloudWatch, DataDog, self-hosted Alertmanager, or Grafana of course. The only requirement for the alert source is to be able to generate a webhook and send it to us.

Can Grafana OnCall itself be self-hosted and/or run as a part of Grafana itself? Your last response makes it sound like it's a separate product with integrations rather than an extension of Grafana. Is that correct?

It's 100% part of the Grafana Cloud, not a separate product. It's deeply integrated with the rest of Grafana.

Same time we've focused on making it useful for those who don't use Grafana for monitoring. Feel free to sign up in the Grafana Cloud and use just OnCall if you want.
