I currently have an unused but approved tourist visa, which I wanted to use end of october, but I would like to apply for an DTV instead. Is this possible or will the DTV be rejected due to an approved tourist visa?
Answer summary
If you have an unused but approved tourist visa (TR visa), you must use it or find a way to cancel it before applying for a Digital Nomad Visa (DTV). The new DTV visa application may be rejected if the tourist visa is still open.

You would need to use, or find a way to cancel, the tourist visa before applying for the DTV

If it is Single Entry I doubt very much it would effect a DTV application. Good luck.
