  No. You will have to upgrade to the Subscription version of Quicken for Mac.
  
  This will convert your Quicken Essentials file upon startup.

  And if you do not want to buy a subscription but are somewhat technically inclined, you can try to run QEM in a VM (virtual machine) running your old macOS.

  @smayer97 should that be "buy a subscription"?
