MODERATORS
I've previously modded a game on a PC and just copied the files over to the steam deck and it worked fine.
It wasn't a Bethesda title, though. Don't know how mods work for those.
Can verify, often the best practice is to mod it on your main PC then port those files over, the main problem you'll run into is modloaders or patches that are only runnable as .exes
