So if I want to go to www.mydomain.com/pihole to go to my pi-hole instance, I would create an A record containing the internal IP of pi-hole and an MX one to configure the subdomain (www.mydomain.com/pihole), is that correct?

No, the MX recourd is only for emails, and for the paths (like in your example), it’s handled by your server.
Also, the subdomains are
subdomain.yourdomain.com
.
