Did Mats suggestion of:
python3.13 -m venv new_venv
$ new_venv/bin/python --version
Python 3.13.0b4
$ source new_venv/bin/activate

Not work?
That should work on any system, with any system installl python.
It's not trying to modify the system installed python in anyway...

If not, please paste the error output you're getting.
