"According to your beliefs, Can the human body create/sustain divinity?" -- Not a yes/no. Depends on what you mean by "divinity". The concept is a human construct, so yes. we created it. But it's only a construct, an idea, a concept, so no.

After reading up on chakras it made me curious about practices that are meant to generate and sustain divinity.

Totally, but even Oxford gives crap definitions for the term. "Of god or god like".

Things that come to mind are attainment of Jhanas, Enlightenment, Grace, Loving-kindness etc. Can a human vessel handle the generation of divine states of being? Is what we, as humans, know of the above divine states actually generate it ourselves? Or are we as ill equipped to do this as an amoeba would be building a house?
