Can somebody help me with an option to randomly assign polygons of specific size to a study area/ a spatial extend using arcGIS?

You could use this tool:

And then buffer the points.
Or make a fishnet:

and add a numeric field that you calculate with random values to determine "selected" or "not selected":
