If you are asking whether an Apple Silicon Mac can run 32-bit Intel applications under Rosetta 2 translation, the answer is No.

Apple dropped support for 32-bit applications as of macOS 10.15 (Catalina). That cut off newer Intel Macs that couldn't run anything earlier than Catalina, as well as all Apple Silicon Macs. (No Apple Silicon Mac can run any version of macOS earlier than Big Sur.)
