It looks like your EC2 is running **Amazon Linux 2** which doesn't use the `apt` package manager, but instead uses `yum` https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSEC2/latest/UserGuide/find-install-software.html

The latest version - **AL 2023** - uses the successor to `yum` called `dnf` https://docs.aws.amazon.com/linux/al2023/ug/package-management.html

YUM installation of VS Code is described here https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/setup/linux#_rhel-fedora-and-centos-based-distributions
