re: plugins
WordPress.com is a multiuser blogging platform. Our blogs are not free standing. There is no FTP access to free hosted WordPress.com blogs and we bloggers cannot install any plugins. There is no upgrade you can purchase that will provide FTP access and the ability to install plugins, upload themes, and/or edit templates and themes in a free hosted WordPress.com blog.

To use plugins you must hire a web host and then set up your own WordPress.org install. -
With respect the tagging alternative is between your ears as tagging is an important blogging skill every blogger needs to acquire. All bloggers ought to learn how to assign the least combined number of relevant tags/categories supported by the textual content in their posts to their posts.
For assigning the minimum combined number of relevant Categories and Tags to your posts see here:

I already understand the information in those links (what are tags/categories). So, since there doesn’t seem to be a way to add the GTM code, is there a way to insert Google Analytics? Or is that the same thing and it just doesn’t work?

Google Analytics is a plugin and no you cannot use it on a free hosted WordPress.com blog.
