Why should I install libdeal.ii-9.1.1? The last version is libdeal.ii-9.2.0.
But if I do 'sudo apt install libdeal.ii-9.2.0' I don't get anything

Because its not in the repositories for your release of Ubuntu. It's absolutely irrelevant what the latest version is.

When I do:
sudo apt install libdeal.ii-9.1.1
I get:

Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
libdeal.ii-9.1.1 is already the newest version (9.1.1-9build2).
libdeal.ii-9.1.1 set to manually installed.
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.

I don't understand, is it installed or not?

To check what's installed issue the command

dpkg -l | grep deal.ii

Did you read the readme file on /usr/share/doc/libdeal.ii-doc/html/readme.html and/or /usr/share/doc/libdeal.ii-doc/html/index.html

After using the command 'dpkg -l | grep deal.ii' I get:

libdeal.ii-9.1.1:amd64 9.1.1-9build2 amd64 Finite Element Differential Equations Analysis Library
libdeal.ii-dev 9.1.1-9build2 amd64 Differential Equations Analysis Library - development files
libdeal.ii-doc 9.1.1-9build2 all Differential Equations Analysis Library - html doc. and examples

Is the installation complete?
After reading the links you sent it says that I have to download and unpack the file, deal.II-X.Y.Z.tar.gz (deal.II-9.1.1.tar.gz), should I?

Your output shows that the packages available on Ubuntu focal are installed. No need for unpacking something any more.

If you now follow https://dealii.org/developer/doxygen/deal.II/step_1.html

with

cd step-1
cmake .
make
make run

What output do you receive?
Maybe you have not all required dependencies installed to run the examples.

You should not try working in the system directory where the examples are stored, because you do not have write access to that area.

Try the following:
create work directory below your home directory
copy the contents of step-1 into that work directory or copy the whole step-1 directory there
cd to that directory and run the cmake... commands there.
