how to trigger shift + left mouse click in Angular

There are 2 anchor elements as shown below.

<a (click)="popupIconClick()">Click Here</a>
<a #newWindow (click)="openInNewWindow($event)">New Window</a>

when first element is clicked, it invokes popupIconClick() function in my .ts file. This finds the #newWindow element and should invoke the click function for this element but the click event should behave as if it was performed with shift key pressed.

popupIconClick() {
  const newWindowElement = document.querySelector(`#newWindow`);
  //should invoke shift+click for newWindowElement
}

Is this possible?
