The NavigationView is purposely limited, so it it likely difficult to customize it in the way you are asking (but not impossible, as anything can be done with enough effort and hacking).

The limited nature of the NavigationView is by design - it is supposed to be the main navigation control for your app, and be very simple. You shouldn't try to customize it in the way you are asking, and instead see if you can fit your navigation into the existing model.

This is designed to be hard to customize, so you will keep it standard (and your app will stay consistent to Material Design standards).

Bottom line, see if you can fit into the existing model, instead of trying to customize it (and thus be non-standard).
