I am curious to know if it’s possible to develop a sleeping disorder such as insomnia by staying awake and/or changing of sleeping habits and schedules to very few hours if any.

Yes irregular sleep habits are on of the root causes of insomnia .Not sleeping at all (under acute conditions) will cause excessive sleepiness, lack of attention and concentration. A person cannot remain healthy without sleep. If ur doing it for any thing such as exams it will not help u at all as u spend more time studing ineffectively if u do not sleep. on an average an healthy young person requires 6- 8 hrs of sleep / day. The duration comes down with age
