Hello I wanted to download Windows 10 on the Mac with Boot Camp Assistant, but on apple support it says that 64GB of memory is needed, can I use the memory of an external hard drive? Like turning the external hard drive into a startup disk or some other way?

Consider installing an older Windows version (W7/W8.1), if macOS permits it.
Think about this. If you buy a Windows PC today you will be hard pressed to find a decent new 128GB machine. 256GB would likely be the minimum you would buy. Why would you think Windows would require less on a Mac? You don't have enough space to run 2 modern operating systems on the main drive.
The problem that the memory of my macbook air is 128 GB, of which only 45GB are free, is there any solution?

I would not use less that 128GB storage space and I recommend 256GB space. Neither Boot Camp nor Microsoft support installing Windows 10 on an external drive.
thank you
