I have no idea how this happened, I didn’t have this issue last night. I don’t know how to troubleshoot this. Can someone please help me?
Sorry for the dumb question in advance.

This can happen from boot to boot if your graphics device is not ready by the time xorg/your display manager starts https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Kernel … _KMS_start
IF that isn't it try booting with the systemd.unit=multi-user.target parameter. If you get to a console, post the full output of
sudo journalctl -b-1
assuming your previous boot was a failure: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/List_o … n_services

What happened last night (not the salacious stuff, I mean about the system - updates?)
If you edit the kernel command line and remove the quiet parameter and add "nomodeset", do you still get a "black screen"?
Do you have more than one output attached? Does the output (monitor) fall asleep or is it "just" black?
We need more details on the condition than "it does not works", also see the stickies in the newbie corner.

I have a minimal Debian distribution called GParted in my USB that i use for disk management and recovery stuff, it has a terminal. I’m mounted into my root directory but is there any way of running
arch-chroot
but on Debian?

How did you install archlinux and how *exectly* did you try "to get my NVIDIA to work"?
But V1del is right, you're just booting into a failing display server.
Edit: arch-chroot is just a simplification script that sets up some system mounts, https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Chroot#Using_chroot

I was following the article in the Arch wiki for NVIDIA, and i changed some configuration files. I remember which ones and i can revert them if i just manage to get into root.

Please don't double post and fullquote if it's not necessary.
Afaik debian technically packages the arch-install-scripts but to just adjust some files you can literally just mount the partition and fix stuff. In most cases people adjust "some xorg files" for all the wrong reasons and with an insufficient understanding of how xorg config files work and they should just test the default setup instead
