My understanding is that Manjaro != Arch
My understanding was that a user would use Manjaro to usually take a
step back from the bleeding-edge, and allow packages to progress as
follows:
Arch --> Manjaro Unstable --> Manjaro Testing --> Manjaro Stable
https://packages.manjaro.org/?query=thunderbird still indicates that
everything in Manjaro is 91.10.0-1.
Now, I'm not saying that the Arch AUR might install and somewhat work on
Manjaro, but as the OP did not know how to install a package outside of
Manjaro's package management system, I personally think it best to
suggest they wait.
If they wanted bleeding edge (and could cope with all the issues that
entails), then they'd be running Arch, not Manjaro.
None of this concerns me nor should it concern you! The user asked an
extremely specific (literally two sentence) technical question about
package availability. "Can I have it and can I force it?".
I provided the extremely specific technical answer because nobody else
did. The answer is "yes". The AUR works just fine on Arch derivatives
like Manjaro by the way, most Arch downstreams have even built their own
custom pamac/yay type package managers to integrate it.
Like PPAs for Ubuntu or COPR for Fedora the AUR is one of the most
important bits of Arch Linux, no reason to be scared of the contents.
