There are many guides on how to port a rom from one device to another on xda . Please check it before posting .
As per your devices , they both are mediatek devices and this guide may help you to port the rom (there are limitations with hardware as alcatel 918 has MT6573 chipset and Alcatel 4010d has MT6575 chipset)

[Q] Cross compatibility of kernel roms of different devices with same chipset

Hello everyone,
two different mobiles having same chipset, does it means that rom or custum rom or kernel made for one will also work in another?
or we have to modify them?
for example Wiko Darkmoon, Karbonn Machfive, Micromax A106 Unite 2 all have Mediatek MT6582 chip, so can we flash another mobile rom on another easily or with little modification?

You have to modify(I,e port) before flashing a ROM for dffnrt phone even though you have the same chipset.
The same goes for kernel which is located in the boot.IMG ,one would have to unpack the boot.IMG of your phone and also the one you want to port and replace zimage/kernel from your boot.img to port boot.img

okay, just wanna ask one more thing that Wiko Darkmoon and Micromax unite 2 both have same chip i.e. mt6582 and both supports USB host mode, so kernels of these two mobiles would be useful in anyway to add USB host support in Karbonn Machfive which do not supports by default?
If yes then can u please suggest me tools and procedure for doing this.
by the way thank you.

You can't make use of another phones kernels, the best you can you do is make custom kernel for your phone that supports the things you want (this I don't know ,I usually search 4pda for this)
As for porting ,tools needed will be
1)a setted up android kitchen-decompiling boot.img (thers a relatively eaiser way ,look up on darkcyanide devs)
2)winrar or the like for extracting
3)base rom-the ROM which you port from(stock or other custom ROM already made for your phone)
4)port ROM which is the ROM you want to make usable for your phone model(ROMs with same kernel version and same chipsets will do )sometimes you can cross port eg 6582 to 6592.
Basically what your doing is extracting both base and port ROM ,replacing some files and zipping it back to a .zip and flashing in recovery.
There are many guides for this in xda so I won't go further.
Do feel free to ank if you find some bugs or have trouble understanding.
Can I install a same custom ROM on different devices with same Kernel??.. Xolo era x and Xolo era 4k

Hi,
I couldn't find much information about your device here. Maybe these threads can help:
[ROOT] [GUIDE] Tips for rooting cheap Chinese MediaTek MTK MT67xx (100s of models)
Cyanogenmod for mediatek devices
The root thread has a lot of information about mtk devices.If you run into trouble try asking in one of those threads.
Good luck
