SnapCenter - Different Upgrade Versions for Different Agents

I have 50 SnapCenter agents deployed and am planning an upgrade from version 5 to 6. Version 6 is not compatible with three critical servers that are our last Server 2008R2 boxes [yes we are working on migrating them :)]. For those boxes only, I would at least like to upgrade to 5.0P1. Is there an easy way to do that without upgrading the entire environment to 5.0P1 and then upgrading to 6.0? I'd rather just push the patch out to the three servers rather than upgrade everything. Any suggestions on the most efficient way to do this?

To update this thread in case anyone searches: I decided to upgrade the server to 5.0P1 and then JUST upgrade to 2008R2 boxes to 5.0P1. My intent was then to upgrade to 6 for everything else. Before I did that, I realized that the PowerShell upgrade is also not compatible with 2012R2 which we have quite a few of (unfortunately). I also took note that both new prerequisites will need to be installed on everything going forward (for now) as neither are preinstalled even on Server 2022. Since this appears to be a major overhaul of SC, I'm going to wait a few patches to deploy.
