Absolutely not. The Mass is not the priest's mass, it is the Church's. He must stay faithful to the rubrics set out in the text. There are other reasons why he must never deviate from the missal, and the internet is full of resources explaining them. If the priest were to go as far as to change the words used in the Canon of the Mass, where the Eucharist is consecrated, the mass would in fact be invalid.

The large (ususally red) book of prayers that the priest reads from during Mass is called the Roman Missal. It contains both the words and the rubrics (actions one is supposed to perform, written in red) for the Ordinary of Mass, as well as the three prayers unique to each day (The Collect, The Prayer over the Offering, and The Prayer after Communion)..In 2011, the prayers in the Missal were reworded to remain more true to the original Latin. This current iteration of the missal is the 3rd Edition of the English Language Missal.

What is the daily life of a ancient roman priest?

The daily life of a Roman priest was no different from the ordinary Roman. The ancients did not have a "clergy" as we consider them today. Almost anyone could become a priest or priestess and most times it was just an honorary title. Some were in charge of shrines and would perhaps make a sacrifice to the god on a certain day, but this took up very little time. Other priests might walk in a procession on a festival day. There was very little religious connotation with a priesthood, it was mostly a position of bragging rights.
