Is there a way to update the Editor filed of an uploaded file or create the file with specific Editor value upfront?

Description
We're using the AppOnly Access to upload file to Document lib, however, the Modified By shown as SharePoint App instead of the display name of the actual App we setup, so we're trying to see if we could update the Editor filed to correct it afterwards.
I saw this link demonstrates a way to update the Modified By through
Set-PnPListItem -List "Demo List" -Identity 1 -Values @{"Editor"="testuser@domain.com"} -UpdateType UpdateOverwriteVersion
So I thought there might be something similar in the lib, so I was trying to update the Editor filed like below,
however got ReadOnly exception
using Microsoft.SharePoint.Client;
using PnP.Framework;
