Is it possible to update Likebook Muses to Android 8.1 via a Mac?

Is it possible to update Likebook Muses to Android 8.1 via a Mac please? I've tried to do it from the link on Boyue's Facebook site plus added a question there but it doesn't allow me to do it on my Mac. Grateful for any advice as I'd love to have the Android 8.1 on my Muses. I have it on my Likebook P6 and can use the Times and Sunday Times app on that but I can't on my Muses and I suspect that's something to do with the lower Android version. Any ideas or advice gratefully received. I love my Muses in every other way and just got the P6 to enjoy the smaller size. I can't justify to upgrading to the P10 at the moment. Thanks

Considering the flashing software is only on windows you need to use parallels or bootcamp. If there is a Mac version of that flashing software I have never seen it.

Edit: this was a thing but is seriously outdated now. You could see if it detects your newer soc though. https://sourceforge.net/projects/rkflashtool/
