Yes - the Chromium based versions will let you if you allow extensions from other stores.

This is Edge macOS version 79.0.309.65 showing Privacy Badger installed from Chrome web store.

1Any Chrome extension that requires a Google account to function is not guaranteed to work. Any extension in the Google Chrome extension store that doesn’t should work. However, compatibility is not guaranteed, Microsoft deliberately removed some Google Chromium features. – Ramhound – 2020-01-18T04:14:48.020
