I have a license for Microsoft Office:mac 2011 when I purchased my current iMac (late 2013). Will I be able to use it on the latest iMac?

No. You will need a new Microsoft license for your choice of a subscription to the current Microsoft 365, or single-purchase Office 2021 for Mac. The latest iMac ships with macOS Monterey which only supports 64-bit applications, though your existing Microsoft documents are unaffected by this.
Do not restore Office 2011 for Mac from migration assistant as it may have a 32-bit uninstaller that would be disabled on Monterey.

The 2019 version also works fine on Monterey (on a Mac mini (2018)).

Nope.
Thank you Viking OSX! I love it when I can understand the verbiage!
