Something to contact NG support about and see though maybe something that could take a while, even if they might support it:
https://my.netgear.com/support/contact.aspx
You might get something on that list the does fully support that if you need it.
Netgear has set up a community forum specifically for the NightHawk RAX WiFi 6 Router products:

I guess it is not possible due to architectural evolutions, but does someone know if there is a way to apply the RAX40 v1 firmware to the RAX40 v2 ? (the expected extension file is not the same between the 2 versions...).
Thanks

don't try it.
the v1 and V2 use different hardware and you'll end up bricking your device if it even lets you "force it"
