Can I use a higher or lower speed chain with Shimano 105 REAR DERAILLEUR SHORT CAGE 11s?

No. Shimano 105 REAR DERAILLEUR SHORT CAGE 11s is an 11-speed component and needs an 11-speed chain. Chains for different speed counts have different external widths and inner-plate profiles, which causes poor shifting or interference with the neighbouring sprockets.
