Can I upgrde the node version to 18.12.0

Hello,

Can I upgrde the node version to 18.12.0? Or is there any issue with the nodjs scripting?

Or is there any issue with the nodjs scripting?

what kind of an answer do you expect if no more details are provided ?
In general scripts work with nodejs 18.X.
openhabian configures to use nodejs 18.x repository. I see nodesjs 18.17 being used under bookworm
/openhabian.

I am still under bullseye…how can I upgrade to nodejs 18.x?

This is not an openHAB related question.
Google might be your friend.

I don’t know any issues. The current LTS is even v20.11 (but I haven’t tried that).
Strictly it’s not openhab, that’s true, but some of the important helpers (zigbee2mqtt, frontail, node-red…) run on nodejs.

True, but those tools should provide instructions for installation of dependencies. This is not the scope of openHAB.
