just a question,
as the Z800ax has quite the same hardware, would it be possible to use the WRX36 files without bricking the device ?
no.
but feel free to find out, possibly the hard way, and report back.
what do you mean with "hard way" ?
hard as in creating a soft, or hard brick.
would be really the hard way... 
The good is, the Z800AX has SSH and is open for changes. But nobody try to have a newer openwrt on it. 
The Hardware is good...
I would try if I get help
then ask for it, in a separate thread.

If needed, I got the DTS file and GPIO
Specifications of ZBT-Z800AX :
Qualcomm IPQ8072A
Qualcomm QCN5024 for 2.4 GHz 4x4 MIMO
Qualcomm QCN5054 for 5 GHz 4x4 MIMO
AX - Wi-Fi 6 Dual-Band 4+4 (2.4GHz, 5GHz)
4-Lanport Gigabit
1-Wan Gigabit
4-external Antenna for 2.4 GHz
4-external Antenna for 5 GHz
4-external Antenna for 5G Module
1GB DDR4 , 8MB nor flash, 256MB EMMC
1-Built in M.2 (for 5G Module)
1-USB 3.0
1-Simcardslot
today i did this :
Install OpenWrt from initramfs image:
1. Use SCP (or other way) to transfer OpenWrt factory image
2. Connect to device using SSH (on a LAN port)
3. Check MTD partition table.
rootfs and rootfs_1 should be mtd18 and mtd20
depending on current OEM slot.
# cat /proc/mtd
4. Do a ubiformat to both rootfs partitions:
# ubiformat /dev/mtd18 -y -f /path_to/factory_image
# ubiformat /dev/mtd20 -y -f /path_to/factory_image
5. Set U-boot env variable: mtdids
# fw_setenv mtdids 'nand0=nand0'
6. Get offset of mtd18 to determine current OEM slot
- If current OEM slot is 1, offset is 16777216 (0x1000000)
- If current OEM slot is 2, offset is 127926272 (0x7a00000)
# cat /sys/class/mtd/mtd18/offset
7. Set U-boot env variable: mtdparts
If current OEM slot is 1, run:
# fw_setenv mtdparts 'mtdparts=nand0:0x6100000@0x1000000(fs),0x6100000@0x7a00000(fs_1)'
If current OEM slot is 2, run:
# fw_setenv mtdparts 'mtdparts=nand0:0x6100000@0x7a00000(fs),0x6100000@0x1000000(fs_1)'
8. Set U-boot env variable: bootcmd
# fw_setenv bootcmd 'setenv bootargs console=ttyMSM0,115200n8 ubi.mtd=rootfs rootfstype=squashfs rootwait; ubi part fs; ubi read 0x44000000 kernel; bootm 0x44000000#config@rt5010w-d350-rev0'
9. Reboot the device
# reboot
I could flash mtd19&21 but after that nothig else worked.
rebooting ends to uboot.
after restoring my backups I got back the old openwrt15.

you can't expect an instruction for some random router to work on any other device, not even one coming from the same manufacturer.
it´s just a try...
i couldn't use some coomands like :
fw_setenv mtdids 'nand0=nand0'
# fw_setenv bootcmd 'setenv bootargs console=ttyMSM0,115200n8 ubi.mtd=rootfs rootfstype=squashfs rootwait; ubi part fs; ubi read 0x44000000 kernel; bootm 0x44000000#config@rt5010w-d350-rev0'
and sure I know the partition table ist differnet.
But hey ... it was a good start ...
I need help because my knowledge of developing is limited

Post the full stock bootlog . According to your supplied information, the device doesn't have NAND flash, but NOR flash + EMMC.
8MB nor flash, 256MB EMMC
And the output of u-boot cmd "smem" and "emmc info"
