Old iPhone disabled

I have been trying to unlock my old iPhone 7 plus. I have forgotten my old passcode. Now it is disabled and telling me to connect to iTunes. With the Mac desktop updates iTunes is no longer on the iMac desktop. My old iPhone is not connecting to wifi. Is there anyway to unlock my old iPhone without losing my stuff on the iPhone?

iPhone 7 Plus, iOS 14

Unfortunately, no but you can recover your data from backups you made once the phone is reset.
