It all depends on what version of the software you intend to run. If you are using Creative Cloud, they will update to ensure can use any current technology. If using legacy Adobe software that worked in Mojave or earlier, no. The Intel Macs have been retired. Software that was written for Intel Macs will have to be updated to run on the Apple Silicone Macs (most likely will require a new license, if they get updates at all). You also can't use an emulator (virtualization software such as Parallels) to run apps that were written for Intel Macs on an Apple Silicone Mac (M1, M2 or later).
