All you have to do is limit the blocks it can spawn on to lava (there is a section on the mobs spawn conditions page for this)

I think the term "spawn" is commonly used for living entities that naturally appear under certain conditions (like nighttime for monsters), while "generate" is usually for structures, ores, plants, etc. which are parts or features of a world you want to appear somewhere.

if you want a mob to naturally spawn on lava, you'd have to override its natural spawning condition which can be done using a simple procedure, even if you don't code. in your mob's "natural entity spawning condition" condition, add this procedure:

check if block below is of material type lava (https://i.imgur.com/D3YKcqF.png)

which checks for lava underneath the mob and returns either true or false. if true is returned, your entity will then spawn on lava.
