Migration Assistant - From internal to external drive

Is it possible to use migration assistant in a ‘non traditional’ direction ie from the internal drive to an external drive rather than the other way round ?


What I’m planning on doing is formatting a new external SSD drive and then in recovery mode install a fresh installation of Catalina to the SSD and then use migration assistant to migrate my contents - apps and home folder, from the internal spinner to the external SSD
