But according to my personal research, AX211 and AX411 only works with processors that is 12th generation and later.
So my question is, can I use an AX210, or a Killer™ Wi-Fi 6E AX1675 (x/w) on my laptop. Which means plunging a Wi-Fi(PCIe) adapter into a M.2: CNVio2 port.
In additional, I have already asked the same question from Lenovo, unfortunately they have not yet replied since 25 December 2023

You may plug AX210 into M.2 CNVIo2 slot, but it will not work. Please read the NOTE in the bottom of this document.

But that doesn't mean that M.2: CNVio2 port is not compatible to regular NGFF Wi-Fi adapter. It doesn't specify that. And according to my knowledge, NGFF adapter is an adapter by itself, so the only problem will be is there at least a PCIex1 and an USB2.0. Because I'm not looking for a WiGig adaptor, so a PCIex1 should run the wireless part as intended (if there is any, which is why I'm asking), and Bluetooth service will run on USB2.0, which I don't actually care about.
So is there any other document /fact that you can provide to prove your statement? I just want to know why exactly it would not work as you said so please don't feel offended by my debating act, thank you.

Probably your are right. It may work and sometime may not work. Depends on the computer. Therefore you have no answer from Lenovo. I doubt that you will get some confirmation from Intel.
I found some information on network that may be interesting for you:
Intel® Wi-Fi 6E AX210

Consult https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/M.2 for more information on the Type E connector that is used. You will see that a USB 2.x lane from the chipset is routed to this connector and Bluetooth functionality is accessed via it. Microsoft pushed for this standardization so that USB Bluetooth dongles and adapters could be supported identically at the driver level.
