I use the netinst installer, so I can't speak to the live CD. What you do have to do is make room first on your hard drive by shrinking one or more existing partitions to make some room. I use the gparted live CD to do this, although there are other ways. You might start by reading the Debian bookworm -- Installation Guide. https://www.debian.org/releases/stable/installmanual -- Does anybody read signatures any more? https://charlescurley.com https://charlescurley.com/blog/
