But it looks like xinetd available only for alm8.

Is it possible to bring it back to the alm9 also?

xinetd is considered obsolete due to security and performance vulnerabilities and has been removed from AlmaLinux 9. Build it at your own risk. Otherwise, use AlmaLinux 8. AL8 is still supported until 2029.
