I am trying to make a CAKE SIZE "Blueberry Cake Donut"... Can I fry that?
I want it to taste as good as the blueberry cake donut but I'm afraid it will still be doughy when I fry it. I don't think baking it will be the same texture.

Switch in blueberry filling and maybe it will be good for your friend's birthday.

As to your plan, I'd look for a recipe of a roll-and-cut-out style dough. (See Erin's article https://food52.com/blog/17706-cake-doughnuts-101-the-completist-s-guide-to-shaping-glazing-frying-baking-your-own)Then, you can make it large, but not too thick, so it should still cook quickly. Or do like Manisha suggested, and start normal sized and see how big you can get, the you can make an impressive layer cake with all the tiers.
Whatever you pick, be careful around the pot of oil!
Practice makes a man perfect :-) good luck.
Whenever you will succeed just upload its image on this post.
Maybe make many blueberry donuts (regular size) and pile them up in a cone like a croquembouche (French wedding cake made of pate a choux).
Then you get the taste & texture of the (regular sized) doughnut, in a birthday party presentation, large enough for a crowd.
