Is it possible to fold the side mirrors while driving?

I have a very narrow garage door, my car is a 2019 MB GLE43 AMG Coupe. It has the automatic folding mirror when I lock the doors. But was wondering if there is a way for me to manually fold the side mirrors when I am about to enter the garage. Please let me know.
Thanks

At what speed?

I tried to move the mirrors at highway speed using the door panel button and there was no response.

According to the 2014 OM, you can't fold the mirrors in above 30 mph.

You can definitely fold them entering your garage. I do that every time.

I have unfold my mirror at 25-30mph. I forgot that I folded the mirror in a tight parking space at my son school when I was sitting in the vehicle waiting for him.

On my 2018, there are three switches at the top of the mirror adjuster in the armrest. The middle switch folds the mirrors. The left and right switches select the mirror to adjust.
