No. For that Mac, Big Sur is the end of the line.

If your iMac is not running Big Sur yet, you can get it from here:

Note that Catalina and Big Sur will not run 32-bit applications. If you're on Mojave or earlier, you may want to check which of your applications are 32-bit (and will need updating/replacing) before upgrading.
