Canon R5, record video and stills simultaneously with Atomos?

I do action photos for equine sports, but frequently get asked if I can also do video. I'm wondering if I can hook up an Atomos Ninja or something, to record video at the same time I'm shooting stills. I use flash for the stills, and it probably wouldn't be the best video possible, but even if I could get decent 1080p video of what I see through the viewfinder (preferably without the focus squares, etc), then I could make additional money.

I found a video where somebody did exactly this with a Sony, but I'm trying to figure out if it's possible on the R5 before plunking down the cash for a Ninja.

Canon EOS R5
