Hey guys, does the term 'to go rogue' mean to do sth on one's own account? Can I say: 'I wouldn't like to go rogue with that project, I want us to put our heads together.'

I don't think this expression quite fits in the example you give - especially when you use "wouldn't like to". Usually when somebody goes rogue it's not about whether you would like to do it or not. It is something you decide to do, often in spite of good reasons not to act in such a way. People usually go rogue when they do something that is outside the normal limits of usual, acceptable, conventional behaviour. It's something people often do individually on their own initiative, although you could have a group e.g. of soldiers who "go rogue" and take actions that are not or would not b authorised by their superiors.

This week I made pierogi, but I didn't serve them with onion butter, I went rogue and served them in a bacon and tomato sauce.

Go rogue means you decide against working together with already established rules.
