LinkedIn has an API you can use at your convenience: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/linkedin/

Accessing other users' LinkedIn data via the API requires their OAuth consent, as it should be. But you are welcome to access your own data via the API.

Can I, an ordinary user, get access to that API and use it to fetch my messages?

Last time I checked, I could not.
