Question:

Can make a phase converter (single to three phase) using transformers or tapping in or using inductors?

I want to use this in an induction motor. (not a rotary phase inverter)

Answer:

Nope. Three phase is composed of three waves 120 degrees apart. Inductors can cause a 90 degree shift, but only between the current relative to the voltage.
