As I understand it, XFCE does not currently support Wayland. Our developers have stated here that while the XFCE team is working on it, they have yet to succeed.

currently Xfce's wayland solution is to replace xfwm4 window manager with labwc. labwc is not in debian bookworm repo, so casual playing with wayland on Xfce won't be very practical until debian 13. for this reason we have removed the wayland session file from our Xfce 4.20 implementation, but it is installable. (xfce4-wayland-session-file package) if a user wants to go off the rails and play. expect breakage.
