Bitbake fetch layers from github repo

I want to extend my Yocto SDK with Qt5. For this I rely on: https://github.com/meta-qt5/meta-qt5

Can I add a recipe to fetch that repository, include those layers to the build and inherit from them?

as well I know recipes aren't designed by Yocto team to fetch whole meta layer. Even that after sourcing script oe-init-build-env to setup build workspace You need to add path to layer in conf/bblayers.conf file. So I think that You approach is not good idea :).

For setup Your workspace consider use some tool or do it manually (I can proposal You to use repo tool - https://source.android.com/source/using-repo)
