Yes you can. Be sure to carefully follow the drlirections for setting up Time Machine. I’ve been using a WD 6-TB for years without any problems.

To use the drive for MacOS you can reformat the drive with macOS supported APFS file system using this link: https://support-en.wd.com/app/answers/detailweb/a_id/8200/ Please note that reformatting is a data destructive process, please backup data from the drive before reformatting it.
