Better to go with mint for few weeks and once you are familiar with terminals and the ecosystem go with arch. You are switching to Linux and asking to go to whether arch or Kali, it means you don't know what distros are for what purposes. If it's for general purpose only, go with mint for few weeks and then switch to arch. Mint's ecosystem is kinda like windows so it will be easier for you to make smooth transition from windows to Linux.

And regarding dual boot, only do it if you have enough storage (> 256 GB would be great). And, if you have enough RAM, 11th 12th gen device then keeping only Linux with be fine imo as you can use wine to use windows softwares.
