Not likely. Electric is 3x 4x as expensive and that gap will not be

So why is it not economical to generate one's own domestic electrickery
from a small mains gas-fired generator.

Cos it's limited in efficiency by thermodynamic constraints. If you use the
waste heat it's a different matter, hence the interest in CHP. Capital costs
will be high.
