Can I use my vintage 23" HD Cinema Display (2004-2008) with a 2020 iMac 27" or 2021 Macbook Pro?

Can I use my vintage 23" HD Cinema Display (2004-2008) with a current iMac 27" or Laptop? I am currently using a mid 2011 iMac 21.5 and have it connected to the Cinema display through a mini display port to dual link DVI. However, since my iMac will no longer update past High Sierra I will retire it with a new iMac. However, I really like my HD Cinema display and wanted to use it if possible with a newer iMac or laptop. Any suggestions?

MacBook Pro (2020 and later)

You need a USB-C to DVI Adapter, such as:
