This feels like more work than necessary, especially the bit:
"which will require modification in Solr code".
If your needs are to co-locate various groups of documents
on specific nodes, composite id (the default) routing has
the ability to cluster docs together, see:
https://lucene.apache.org/so
Thanks Erick
This is for future. I am exploring to use a custom sharding scheme (which
will require modification in Solr code) together with the benefits of
SolrCloud.
Thanks

Sure, just use the Collections API ADDREPLICA command to add as many
replicas for specific shards as you want. There's no way to specify
that at creation time though.
Some of the new autoscaling can do this automatically I believe.
I have to ask what it is about your collection that this is true.
