Yes. The Apple TV box (any model) is compatible with any TV that has an HDMI-in port. It does expect a 16:9 screen, though.

Set up your Apple TV - Apple Support


If you get no image, then the current video settings on the Apple TV box may not be correct for the TV. Then try cycling video settings using the remote until you find a valid setting (step #5 from the link below).
