Can you have a LAN for iphones without cellular data and with no internet, if so what would you need and how would you do it? 

A LAN? Connect it to a router that does not have a WAN connection, problem solved.

No, iPhone only supports making a hotspot off a cellular network with cellular data. No other use is supported.

I tried that with my router at home(i unplugged everything that would have connected me to the internet) and I could not join the game I had running on another computer

What are you trying to do? The initial question is kinda vague and the addition of this statement makes things more unclear.
