I'm wondering if there is a way to install a clean install of Debian x86,same bullseye version that is on the machine, to an external drive, so I can boot to it?
You can use debootstrap to install Debian from another Debian or other already installed Linux system. This process is documented many times on the web, just google for "debootstrap install debian" or similar.
