Yes, such systems will still be possible. All the ones in the video aren't so much ring systems as planets with a large number of orbiting planetesimals, asteroids and mesoplanets, or the well known gas giant moon systems.

It will be possible to manufacture such systems the same way as we can now in US1.

From what I've seen we won't be able to make those exact rings, but we should be able to create a suitable approximation that behaves appropriately.
