With a working gcc, you should be able to compile all that is needed to build Chromium and Firefox.
There are a few programming languages that cannot be bootstrapped from a C or C++ compiler, so you need a binary executable of a previous compiler version for that language, but I do not think that Chromium uses any of those.
The bootstrapping of Rust is complex, but AFAIK it is possible using mrustc. Then you should be able to also compile Firefox.
