Installing Qt 6 on Github Runner

I want to use GitHub Actions to build my Open Source project.
The chap who's investigating this seems to think we can't install this to a Runner without having access to the offline installer? This makes sense because the online installer has a GUI so we couldn't use that.
For some inexplicable (at least to me) reason the last offline installer Qt make available is 5.15.2
Is there a way to install e.g. Qt 6.5.1 on a Windows/Linux/MacOS Runner without using the offline installers? Do the "install-qt" or "aqtinstall" tools enable the installation to be done without using either the online installer or offline installer.
If we have an MSVC project that uses Qt VS Tools, are there any special things we need to do to get the MSBuild code to work?

Hi,
AFAIK, one of the aqtinstall project goal is exactly the use case you have at hand.
