Do you have any specific problem with yum?
Normally you would do yum install make
Or, maybe, sudo yum install make
Wow :-), Ok, i write the standard Make reference here, you take your pick on the source.
wget http://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/make/make-3.81.tar.bz2
tar xfj make-3.81.tar.bz2
./configure
make
sudo make install
And, while you are there, might want to reinstall yum too...
Good to hear you have fixed it.

Just download rpm:
wget http://mirrors.cat.pdx.edu/centos/5.3/os/x86_64/CentOS/make-3.81-3.el5.x86_64.rpm
and install it via rpm:
rpm -ivh make-3.81-3.el5.x86_64.rpm

Any help on how to install kernel-headers for specific version that dnf doesn't know about?

Cross-compile the toolchain on another system to your target architecture (whatever the VM is emulating) and then copy it over via FTP or SCP.
I just double checked and CentOS 5.2 already includes make!
I found it also in one of the online mirrors, if it is easier for you:
http://centos.cogentcloud.com/5/os/i386/CentOS/make-3.81-3.el5.i386.rpm
if you installed the 64 bit version:
http://centos.cogentcloud.com/5/os/x86_64/CentOS/make-3.81-3.el5.x86_64.rpm
Try to get yum , its really incredible that make is not on your distrib, have you tried gmake ?
Update:
Often people want the most recent version of gcc, and devtoolset is being kept up-to-date, so maybe you want devtoolset-N where N={4,5,6,7...}, check yum for the latest available on your system). Updated the cmds below for N=7.
There is a package for gcc-7.2.1 for devtoolset-7 as an example. First you need to enable the Software Collections, then it's available in devtoolset-7:
sudo yum install centos-release-scl
sudo yum install devtoolset-7-gcc*
scl enable devtoolset-7 bash
which gcc
gcc --version
Update: Installing latest version of gcc 9: (gcc 9.3.0) - released March 12, 2020:
Same method can be applied to gcc 10 (gcc 10.1.0) - released May 7, 2020
Download file: gcc-9.3.0.tar.gz or gcc-10.1.0.tar.gz
Compile and install:
//required libraries: (some may already have been installed)
dnf install libmpc-devel mpfr-devel gmp-devel
//if dnf install libmpc-devel is not working try:
dnf --enablerepo=PowerTools install libmpc-devel
//install zlib
dnf install zlib-devel*
./configure --with-system-zlib --disable-multilib --enable-languages=c,c++
make -j 8 <== this may take around an hour or more to finish
(depending on your cpu speed)
make install
Tested under CentOS 7.8.2003 for gcc 9.3 and gcc 10.1
Tested under CentOS 8.1.1911 for gcc 10.1 (may take more time to compile)

2. Use the option --prefix to install gcc to another directory other than the default one. The toplevel installation directory defaults to /usr/local. Read about gcc installation options
