A custom ROM is modified software, typically of an operating system that you would overwrite or erase over the phone's stock system. The customized ROM may have features that may be different or better than was was on stock.

If there is not official update provided by the manufacturer can you use custom roms to update the device to next android version?

From my own experience, yes, you so can. I might warn you though, it needs rooting your device, which can brick your phone. I'm not responsible for any damage, so here what I do. Example: You have an android phone with Android 2.2, and you want android 2.3 gingerbread. Before doing anything else, go to XDA developers forum, and search for you device and the custom roms. If you see any android 2.3 roms in there, then go in, and read the comments to make sure that it's working on other phones too. If people are commenting with "thanks", "it's great", "perfect ROM" or any other positive feedback, then you can root your phone, and put that custom ROM on your device.

This can be due to that device's hardware limitations, and there may not be not enough of an interest to find a custom ROM to port Android into a non-Android device.
