    You don't need to give your Cpanel account to others, but instead, create a temporary FTP account for others to upload the files.

    But you can try to install the themes yourself because it's just a straightforward process.

    Why don't you install it yourself coz it easy as you can see here
    Step 1: Download your theme of choice
    Step 2: Upload the theme directory to WordPress Navigate to where WordPress is installed and locate the /wp-content/themes/ directory.
    Step 3: Activate the theme within your WordPress admin panel
