Yes they are Android apps.  I don't see a good way to solve your problem 
without some kind of app on your device.

Yes you can set up your own server, and input the details into the apps 
(hostname, port, credentials).  The CalDAV-Sync app at least also has 
presets for common ones, including cloud and google.  I'd be trying to 
connect it to whatever server your Outlook client connects to.  
Otherwise you'd be looking at your own server, but that server would 
still need to connect to wherever your calendar is hosted.
