I don't see why you couldn't make and sell mods for Defold. It's the engine itself that the license stops you selling, not things that use it.

I'm fairly sure Epic don't let people fork, modify and then sell Unreal Engine either.

Exactly. The license used for Defold (https://defold.com/license/) says:
