Is there a way I can dynamically change the Return Array based on a value in another cell in an Xlookup formula?

For example, I am trying pull the data in various columns from another tab using the "Lookup Code"(Column B) as my lookup value.

Row 1 is the column header from another tab. For example, the "Prior Account ID" is in Column C from the "List" (source) Tab
The Xlookup formula in cell C5 is: =XLOOKUP($B5,List!$B:$B,List!C:C)

Is there a way I can dynamically change the Return Array based on what is in row 1? i.e., XLOOKUP($B5,List!$B:$B,List!C:C) to change to XLOOKUP($B5,List!$B:$B,List!AH:AH) automatically for the subsequent columns.

I used to be able to change the column number in Vlookup dynamically but not sure how to do this in Xlookup?

Any help is greatly appreciated.
 

Excel Facts

Will the fill handle fill 1, 2, 3?
Yes! Type 1 in a cell. Hold down Ctrl while you drag the fill handle.
How about
Excel Formula:
=INDEX(List!$A$2:$AH$1000,XMATCH($B5,List!$B$2:$B$1000),XMATCH(C$4,List!$A$1:$AH$1))

Awesome.... This works. I did not know the "xmatch" function. Learn something new everyday
