iMac mid 2011 and new Mac Mini

Is there a way that I can hook up a new Mac Mini to use my old 27-inch iMac mid 2011 as a display and a hard drive?

NO!

"You can connect any of these older iMac models to

another Mac from 2019 or earlier for use as an external display."

From this:

There are no workarounds, hacks, magical spells to make it work.
