No, Big Sur is the latest possible upgrade. See the following from Identify your iMac model - Apple Support


iMac (Retina 5K, 27-inch, Late 2014)

Model Identifier: iMac15,1

Part Number: MF886xx/A

Newest compatible operating system: macOS Big Sur


To upgrade to Big Sur, see: How to download macOS - Apple Support


Be aware that if you upgrade to Catalina 10.15 or later you will also need to update any non-Apple 32-bit apps. See: https://www.macworld.com/article/232735/how-to-check-if-mac-software-is-32-or-64-bit.html
