If you mean the GCCWTV, google patched that out in 2023. You can still ADB into them just fine to ADB push or pull apps or files (after you install adbtools), but you cannot install CFW (like lineageOS) any more.
I think probably the best way to get something like lineageOS on your TV is to get a raspberry pi (or a CM4 module + HDMI board) and flash that. You should be able to pair your preexisting Chromecast remote with it and the interface should be seemless.
