Without more detail about which specific model docking station you are using I cannot be sure, however your description suggests that the dock has a DisplayPort Multi-stream Transport hub inside of it (also known as DP MST) driving the displays. macOS computers do NOT support DP MST, which is why your displays are mirrored.

The dock does not appear to have DisplayLink technology inside of it, which means that DisplayLink will not be able to assist you.
