Hello,
Is there a way to be able to run old 32-bit apps in updated macOS
Catalina in an old 2012 13" MBP? Like a hack/workaround or something.

Run earlier version of MacOS in a Virtual Machine with Virtualbox or VMware.
The three main options are: VMWare Fusion*, Parallels Desktop,
VirtualBox. These will run the older MacOS within the newer MacOS, which
can be handy, but will also be a bit slower since both OSes are using
the one computer's resources. VMWare Fusion Player is free for personal
use - you just need to create a free VMWare acount first.

How about multiple macOS versions like I do with BootCamp (32-bit macOS v10.14.6 and 64-bit Windows 10)?

VM Managers such as Fusion and Parallels allow several OS' to be run at
the same time (Windows, Linux, Mac OS, Solaris...). Bootcamp is an
abject waste of time.

Bootcamp is good if you need the full speed of your computer, without
two (or more) OSes competing for the resources. On older Macs and/or
running complex apps, there can be a relatively significant difference.

I currently use Parallels Desktop, and have a complete set of macOS
version VMs dating back to Leopard (Server).
So I have a somewhat related question. Are there any good options for
running older OS versions on Apple Silicon? My old iMac recently died
and I opted for a refurbed intel machine over a new Mac so I could
still run these VMs.
Are there any intel emulators for Apple Silicon that can run older mac
OS versions that are reasonably stable and which allow Apple OSes to be
set up reasonably easily?
