You would need a new computer if you want to upgrade to Ventura (or to any of the 4 upgrades between High Sierra and Ventura)
If you want to continue using the 2011 iMac, it would be a good idea for security reasons to use a 3rd party browser that supports running its current version on High Sierra rather than running the outdated Safari. One option is Chrome. See: https://www.google.com/chrome/
