Is it possible to control the MK via NRF24L01 using a WiFi router?

Welcome all!
I have a server on Linux Debian, a WiFi router, this WiFi is all over the apartment.
Because Since I don’t really understand MK programming and many other things yet, I had a question: will it be possible to control these very MKs by transmitting information via a WiFi router, where the nRF24L01 radio module will act as a receiver? I would like it to be possible to do this from a browser, phone or other device with the Internet. Or do the radio modules only work with each other (transmitter-receiver), and simply have a frequency like that of WiFi, and then there is no way to control them in this way?
In case this is not possible, what cheap option can you recommend to make my plan work?
WiFi router: TL-WR740N with the ability to install OpenWRT or DD-WRT.
Thank you all in advance for your response, and for any provided material.

It will not work to connect the NRF24L01 to a WI-FI router, because the data transfer protocols are different. NRF24L01 are good if you need to transfer data between them. Better use ESP8266 WiFi module with I/O ports and UART serial interface. With it, you can manage anything from your phone / PC. Yes, and it is not so expensive compared to NRF24L01, the difference is only 1.5-2 times. Enough data on working with this module has already accumulated on the Internet.

Formally, you can. You need to study a specific router - does it have GPIO or at least USART.
I'll clarify - you need two modules - one in the router, the second - to the controller.
Another option is to use the HC-05 module and bluetooth.
