Please ask, after I arrive in Avignon from Paris, and then pick up the car, it may take a total of 2 days. I want to spend the first half day visiting the Papal Palace, the Broken Bridge, and other places in the city. The next day, I want to go to the Stone City, the monastery, and the Lake of Sainte-Croix in Verdon. Is it possible ?

There is still time, and half a day is enough for the broken bridge and the Pope's Palace. The next half day, visit the Senanque Abbey and the stone city of Gordes, which are 5-10 minutes apart by car. The other half day, visit the D8 highway from Valensole to Dignes, where there are many fields of lavender, and if you want to rent a boat on Lake Sainte-Croix, it is recommended to arrive no later than 5:30-6:00, otherwise it will be closed.

Fine for a stroll, but a bit tight on time. Parking in Avignon is a hassle, mostly just by the city walls. The other three sites are a bit further away, but it's still light out here until 10pm, so if you're fit, it's doable. The abbey closes for individual visits at 11am, and is closed on Sundays.

Is it possible to go to Vallesole and Lake Santa Croce on the day we arrive at noon?

Is Valence-Solliès in the opposite direction of Stone City? Which is closer to Avignon City?
