Is it possible to create an asynchronous function without declaring its name (anonymous function)?

For example, how can I make the following function anonymous?

const asyncFunction = async () => {
    const response = await fetch('API');
    // some code... 
}

asyncFunction();

It's called Immediately Invoked Function Expression and that executes functions as soon as they are created.

(async () => {
    const response = await fetch('https://some-domain.com/path/to/api');
    // some code...
})();
