@Shoaib Anwer • Not sure which MSDN plan you have, the MSDN Dev Essentials includes M365 E5 subscription for 25 users. You can sign in to the MSDN portal using https://my.visualstudio.com/Benefits and activate the Microsoft 365 Developer subscription (E5), as highlighted below, which includes Azure AD P2 licenses as well.

If this is not available for you, you can enable EMS E5 trail from the Azure Portal that includes Azure AD Premium P1/P2 licenses as well. Usually trial activation fails if the trial was already used in the past.

I have exactly the same problem. When clicking the "Start your trial >" button in e-mail, it will not recognise my password which works everywhere else.
I think it assumes I login via a work/school account, which I do not!
Another dead end.

button link is formed like this:
