The switch from Win 10 to Win 11 costs nothing, so Microsoft doesn’t care at all whether you keep using 10 until your PC dies.
The next one you buy will come with 11 preinstalled.
Microsoft doesn’t care if you install Linux either.
You’ve already paid for the Windows license when you bought the PC.
