My phone's touchscreen is damaged. Is it possible to control it remotely?

I have an Android 5-based smartphone that I like a lot but it's an old phone and the touchscreen is damaged. The screen works perfectly but there's no user input available. The battery was changed recently and I suppose the technician did a good job fixing the backing side but broke the front part containing the touchscreen. **Is there an option to access it somehow and make it controllable remotely?** If I use a USB cable, is possible to install TeamViewer or some other remote control software to still use it? The phone has no other remote control software preinstalled. Its touchscreen broke before I was able to install anything for remote control. The point is to use its camera and mic functionality, and still use its sensors to do something useful like a remote camera or something similar.
