I am moving my data from my current Windows 10 computer to a Windows 11 system. Can I transfer all my Thunderbird data, folder structure etc. to my new computer?

Yes. My suggestion, assuming you use standard setup: - exit tb on old pc - copy c:\users\<yourid>\appdata\roaming\thunderbird to external media - install tb on new pc and then exit - copy thunderbird folder from external media to c:\users\<yourid>\appdata\roaming which will overlay the default thunderbird folder created during the install - start tb
