Answer
You can make an above ground pond.  Some people make a cement wall with mortar which is then lined with a pond liner.  Others make a 2 x 4 wooden frame for the pond and line that.  I don't have any personal experience with above ground ponds but it certainly can be done and many have done it.  It's not a great idea to put dirt right into a pond as it will be very hard to manage and clean.  Good luck!
