You can. Just make the installation USB using Rufus. Rufus allows to configure the Windows 11 iso to override minimum requirements. Almost all Windows 10 drivers work with Windows 11 too. I'm running Windows 11 on an ancient 1st Gen i7 Laptop with 6GB Memory and an NVIDIA GT 425M. Works better than Windows 10.

Plus if I remember correctly rufus disabled at least SOME of the spyware

I think you are misremembering, since the iso already contains all the microsoft shitware, rufus can't strip those out.You might have used a custom build.
