The Retropie image is built on top of the Raspbian image and that needs a Raspberry to run on (it’s just a Debian tailored to run on a Raspberry Pi so…).
What you can do is installing Retroarch on your device. There’s even an image in the Play store (). I don’t know if EmulationStation will compile on an android system but you shouldn’t need it since RetroArch seems to have a GUI on Android.
