( Python ) Can you swap the starting process of the selection sort?

Question

from finding the minimun and put it on the left to finding the maximum and put it on the right

def SelectionSort(a_list):
    n = len(a_list)

    for i in range(0, n-1):
        iMin = i
        print(a_list)

        for j in range(i+1, n):
            if a_list[j] < a_list[iMin]:
                iMin = j

        temp = a_list[i]
        a_list[i] = a_list[iMin]
        a_list[iMin] = temp
    
    print()
    return a_list

someList = [45,984,6,90,8946,89]
SelectionSort(someList)

Can it swap the process from minimum => maximum to minimum <= maximum

the answer should look like this.

[6, 45, 89, 89, 984, 8946]
