How to stop iris animation when launching apps on iPhone SE?

Unfortunately, no, that has mostly to do with the overall “look” and not app opening iris animations.

"Finally, Liquid Glass has animations, which for some people with visual issues, can be difficult for them. To turn off the animations, again go to Settings > Accessibility > Motion – Turn ON Reduce Motion and things won’t move about your screen."

I was afraid of that. I sure wish Apple would stop trying to fancy up things without a means to turn it off. Limiting Motion was a good start, but they need to make the choices more granular… including “No Opening Iris”
