We have a very shallow 18’ well that we don’t use next to our house. Possible to “plug” it and convert to cistern?

Our regular well went dry last year and it would be nice to keep a reservoir where we can store water for dry periods. Or if we need water delivered, we wouldn’t worry about it seeping out.

Is it worth it for this style of well, only 2’ diameter?
