It sounds like the clips have broken. Don't roll down the window or you'll bend/break the door lock rods.
Since you can't open it from the inside or outside your options are basically break the door panel from the inside to access the latch or cut a hole in the door from the outside for access. Doors are pretty cheap these days...

you can drill out your lock cylinder and possibly have enough room and you wont have a hole in your door if you can another lock cylinder but tearing up your door panal and buying a new one might be cheaper espeically if you find one on here for 50, You can always pull parts from a junkyard pretty cheap too just have to find an Sc with a clean door panel in a junk yard usually its ragged out

Why brake the door panel? There are screws you have to pull out from the interior door handle and few screws around the door and int lock then gently lift up on the door panel while holding it unclip the light and wires you’re done, I think I disassembled 10 door panels without braking a single clip

My friend at work was able to get my panel off. He broke my window trim and had to shove his hand behind the panel to open it. My door lock actuator was old and rusty looking. We replaced the door clips. I may replace the the clip and door lock actuator in the driver side door for peace of mind.
Now I need another window trim.
