Yes you can do it !!! But it is a complex thing you need to handle that. While Creation of table first you need to check the table name if exists or not. Then we need to write a dynamic sql execution query for that. Please give a try with this Idea

Yes you can do it, look at following code.

SQL

create PROCEDURE sproc_CreateTableAtRuntime
(
	@TableName NVARCHAR(128)
	,@Column1Name NVARCHAR(32)
	,@Column1DataType NVARCHAR(32)
	,@Column1Nullable NVARCHAR(32)
)
AS
Begin
	DECLARE @SQLString NVARCHAR(MAX)
	SET @SQLString = 'CREATE TABLE ' + @TableName + '( '+ @Column1Name + ' ' + 	@Column1DataType + ' '+ @Column1Nullable +')' 
	EXEC (@SQLString)
End

Now you can execute the store procedure as follows:

SQL

sproc_CreateTableAtRuntime 'MyTable','MyColumn1','Int','Not Null'
