It sounds like you're wanting to set up a resolver for your network.
That's fine, you can do that, just use the appropriate allow-query ACLs.
You can find the details in the BIND ARM.

That sounds like you want to set up an authoritative name server for
your zones that will be listed in the NS records. That's also fine, but
it should be completely separate from your resolver to avoid problems
with cache pollution.
