Most likely NOT.
Your iPad is probably too old, now.
If you need/want updated an iPad with tge newest iPadOS versions with current, up to date apps, then you need to seriously consider a new iPad model OR a “newer” , used iPad model capable of running the latest iPadOS versions.
There are plenty of newer, older iPad models that can run the current iPadOS 14.
Sorry & Best of Luck to You!
iOS 14.2 requires an iPad mini to be a fourth generation or newer model. Other iPads which support it are the iPad 5, second generation iPad Air, any iPad Pro, and any newer one.

I do not know what generation my mini is but it is a version 9.3.5. Can I download a more recent version?
Probably not; being at that version suggests that it's a first generation model without a GPS.
