  If you want to use third party plugins on the wordpress.com platform, there is no way round but you have to upgrade to the Creator Plan.

  But why would you use Elementor? It’s known for producing heavy and sloppy html, slowing down your site. It is also having issues with several browsers.
  Instead you better use ouw own Block Editor which has specially been build for the wordpress platform. You find tutorials at https://wordpress.com/forums/topic/new-to-wordpress-com-resources-to-get-started/
