Can we generate customized packets using Wireshark?

We need to test CIFS protocol with negative test scenarios to check the system behavior from Server to Host. Would it be possible to generate the packets with wrong Data using Wireshark?

No. Wireshark is not a packet generator. Take a look at scapy instead to craft packets, or Ostinato to replay traces you already have.
