I don't think this is reasonable. Besides using Debian repositories, Q4OS builds its own packages, and for Gemini, they're probably built against Bullseye. Combining them with Debian packages from Bookworm may create a FrankenDebian.

What you can do though is use packages from bullseye-backports.

And don't forget that Q4OS allows you to easily create custom application installers. They provide some software packaged this way.

An easy way to test out a new KDE release is installing it from a snap.
