No , you would not be able to install FCP 7 on your new Mac.

It has not been able to run from OS Sierra onwards, or there about .

Another reason is that it is a 32 bit application, and nothing from Catalina onwards runs 32 bit applications. Catalina onwards is only 64 bit applications.

You can get the free trial of FCP for 90 days here, no payment, no credit cards, it just stops working after 90 days.
