Sure, it's a package just like any other. You can use the mainline kernel PPA to get any version you like.

But it might be easier to just upgrade your system from 20.04 to 22.04 and you will automatically get a kernel higher or equal 5.19 without manual intervention (with the hwe kernel)

updating to 5.19 for my kernel resolved the problem
