You can use dotNetInstaller, see: GitHub - dblock/dotnetinstaller: A widely used, general-purpose setup bootstrapper for MS Windows.[^]
I would advise however to use the webinstaller if possible, as this intelligently detects what components are not installed and installs them.
Here is another interesting 'InnoSetup Dependency Installer' GitHub - stfx/innodependencyinstaller: Modular InnoSetup Dependency Installer[^]
You don't have to use InnoSetup, but in the code you can find the download links for e.g. the .NET framework 4 web installer:

Delphi
