The DAC needs the reference voltage to function, so it cannot generate it.

Try to : Read vref - set dac low value - read dac output with the same adc but different channel - compare with vref - increase dac value untill it matches vref?

connect output of dac to input of adc

It can be done externally with an op-amp.

But I see no real benefit to this
