Welcome to the Zoom Community, @Lokaf.

 

No, sorry.  Local Recording is only available on the Zoom desktop client for Windows, macOS, or Linux, according to this Zoom Support article:

@Lokaf,

 

On a non-desktop device, the only recording you can do is to start a Cloud Recording.  Cloud Recordings currently can’t be done in Breakout Rooms, Per this Zoom Support article:

See the section Limitations of meeting breakout rooms.
