Can emails be archived if not connected to (IMAP) server?

I have transferred my domain from one registrar to another. As such, I have a brand new email (IMAP) hosting account. Yes, I did back up all my emails before doing this. When I enter the new email server settings I can get it to work, however since it is a new server with a new company, all the emails disappear when it connects, of course, because they are on the old server at the old domain registrar.

When I restore them, all the emails restore along with the old server settings. I tried archiving the emails to the local folders, but TB won't let me move them, nor does it let me create a new archive folder for 2020 emails. It does nothing when I use the archive button, manually copy and paste emails.

Any suggestions on archiving, or better yet keeping my emails before configuring my email client (Mozilla Thunderbird) to connect with the new email account?

Thanks in advance. ~Marlon
