  All etcher is doing is copying the content of the ubuntu/debian install cd onto your flash device. So anything the ubuntu/debian install cd can normally do, this should also be able to do. That said, most modern linux distros auto-mount removable media. If you don't want this behavior you should learn how to turn it off... not change distros.

Both debian and ubuntu have installers to install them from cd/dvd/usb, those would not normally be "live", but they are bootable (they have to be), and it is possible to do certain tasks from them.

There's nothing resembling automounters running on any of my debian boxes, and (although I never cared for them) I don't think automounters were a thing the last time I tried ubuntu on a desktop.

All that said, I think you may be on a wrong track. I think starting an automounter is something you desktop environment (popular choices include Gnome, KDE, lxde, cinnamon) does, so that's possibly where you have to look.
