I am able to access "https://mirror.msys2.org" on my firefox browser without any problems.

Start by reproducing pacman -Suy in the reported MSYS2 installation and compare resolution of mirror.msys2.org and repo.msys2.org with access through Firefox. No source file or test is named; done would require identifying a reproducible cause for the command-line host-resolution failure and documenting a verified fix or next step.
