Most ARM systems can run in both big-endian and little-endian modes. Somewhere
early during boot this choice is being made.
Having said that, since big-endian machines are getting rare, there's very
little support for big-endian ARM systems. Most (if not all) boards can run
big-endian, but software support is usually lacking, in particular in the
bootloader parts where this matters.
If it's just for testing some software, maybe you can use a QEMU machine?
Kind regards,
