If you throttle your CPU, it will not generate as much heat:

     https://wiki.debian.org/CpuFrequencyScaling


Some motherboards have temperature sensors, firmware, and fan connectors 
(e.g. 4-pin) that can control the fan speed(s) according to measured 
temperatures and firmware settings, provided that you have compatible 
fans.  Check your hardware, motherboard technical manual, and firmware 
settings.


If your motherboard is lacking, another approach is to buy a chassis fan 
with a built-in temperature sensor and speed controller.  For example:

     https://www.arctic.de/en/f12tc


Yet another approach is to buy a hardware fan controller:
