If you can run Perl on the system, then you can run ExifTool.

It looks like Strawberry Perl is not available for ARM processors.
GitHub issue #28 (https://github.com/StrawberryPerl/Perl-Dist-Strawberry/issues/28)
and more recently
GitHub issue #218 (https://github.com/StrawberryPerl/Perl-Dist-Strawberry/issues/218)

It might be possible to run Perl through the WSL (Windows subsystem for Linux) on ARM.

There is a Perl for ARM linked from this perlmonks post (https://www.perlmonks.org/?node_id=11155845).  The first link is broken, but the others work and the last download link for the zip file is good.
