This isn't the first time I'd heard this theory, or something like it. There's a book published in 1988, called
The Pyramids, an Enigma Solved which title seems a little presumptious, but it's an interesting idea - the whole shebang poured
in situ in concrete. I'm not enough of a civil engineer to know if it were possible at that period, but it's fun to speculate.

The Romans used concrete. True, they were more than 1,000 years after the pyramids, but still, they weren't all that advanced, technologically, over the Egyptians.
