You'd be lucky if it works directly , as there were some semantic 
changes in ansible, so you'll probably have to review all the changes, 
and if ansible-core just has the modules (it's a stripped down version 
of ansible, as you're supposed to download the collections yourself) , 
and use FQCN (Fully Qualified Collection Names) for  modules ...

FWIW, CentOS Infra still on ansible 2.9.27 from our own configuration 
management SIG and ansible-core excluded in yum/dnf to ensure that our 
automation still runs fine (until we have time to test/convert all our 
roles/tasks/playbooks to run on ansible 5 - aka ansible-core 2.12.x)
