I don't think you can. What you can do is run a full node with Bitcoin Core and point Electrum to it, or just run Wasabi with Knots instead. If you're more advanced and worried at the same time about leaking addresses and wallets to third-parties, you could use trezorctl (https://wiki.trezor.io/Using_trezorctl_commands_with_Trezor).

It's possible, but not straight forward.

Bitcoin Core doesn't have native support within the client for HW wallet but you can use a python program as a bridge between your hardware wallet and the client. The program only relays information to and from Bitcoin Core and your Core client becomes a watch-only wallet.

There's a guide here: https://github.com/bitcoin-core/HWI/blob/master/docs/bitcoin-core-usage.md
Repo for the "plugin": https://github.com/bitcoin-core/HWI

It is still possible to connect Bitcoin Core with Trezor or other hardware wallets such as Coldcard (watch-only). However, the method is not as simple as when connecting the hardware wallet to Electrum. The following is the tutorial link if you are interested in using a Hardware wallet on Bitcoin Core:
