So, I was thinking of using March to do Strenth Training - making it a "Muscle March" - but I currently don't have a Kettlebell. I heard that doing exercises with it could be great strength training, and some Programs require one, but I was wondering: can it be replaced by something else? For example, a dumbbell?

It depends on the exercise that you are using it for somewhat. For instance in my experience bicep curls aren't too different. You might lose a bit if the dynamics in the strength of your hand on uneven pushups. It will be hard to replicate some movements though.

Kettlebells have a particular shape and movement dynamics, in my opinion it doesn't make much sense to do a kettlebell program if you don't have a kettlebell but that's just my opinion.
If you have dumbbells on hand maybe you should choose a program that uses those

I'll keep that in mind. I wonder how much an adjustable kettlebell costs...?

Fremen Is correct, plus kettlebells have the added bonus of improving grip strength a lot more than you would think, you can really tell a difference in your functional strength after using them, in the past I've used a 6kg one and a 12kg one nothing special but you can change the tempo to make them easier or harder.
