ᐅ Shower: Is it possible to convert this single-lever mixer to a thermostat valve?

In the relatively new house (4 years old) that we are renting, there is unfortunately only a single-lever mixer installed in the shower. It has actually annoyed me from the start, especially since I installed a rain showerhead, but even more so because you often adjust the water flow and the temperature changes at the same time (which is really tricky with kids). Therefore, a thermostat would be much more practical.
Now, I’ve only seen these thermostats in one version, where the water is supplied from two sides. However, we have a single-lever mixer here without any visible water supply lines. So my question is: Is it possible to convert this to a thermostat, and if so, is that feasible in a rental property, or would it require irreversible modifications?
Thank you very much in advance for any ideas on this topic 🙂

If the quantity is reduced, then the temperature will also rise, but it will remain constant.What you are describing could, however, be due to different pressure levels in the pipe.So, if the temperature stays the same under a certain setting, that would already be acceptable to me.
