I went to System Settings>Displays> Advanced, but the options are allowing to link make or ipad, and pushing through edges for the mouse. I am using macOS Sequoia.

Clamshell works the way it always has. You obviously need an external display, and an external keyboard and pointing device.
If it is not working for you, then tell us: what exactly happens when you try?
FWIW, I never really understood the point of using a Mac in clamshell mode, and not use its gorgeous screen and great keyboard and trackpad; but if you want to, just go ahead. Nothing has changed, as far as I can tell.

Fine, but do you also need that clamshell app? Does it not work on its own, simply by adding a keyboard, mouse and display?

Using Mac with Clamshell Mode:
Either wired or Bluetooth is what I use for the keyboard and mouse. I don’t have it fall asleep when the lid is close(something I configured through a Terminal command).
