no you would need to have window on you're computer, or even mac boot camp but there is a lot of problems with 3ds max and bootcamp  https://knowledge.autodesk.com/support/3ds-max/learn-explore/caas/sfdcarticles/sfdcarticles/Apple-Bo...

Hi @Anonymous ,

3ds Max is developed only for the Windows OS, and is officially supported only under native Windows (not under emulation). Please see the systems requirements page. Thanks!

Hi Never tried it, but here is someone who has installed it on ubuntu.. https://youtu.be/h86GrgL-6rI 

So you could ty I suppose..  In this movie is also made usage of an emulation software called Wine which you can find on https://www.winehq.org   ..

Hello

What about a Vmware virtual Windows on Linux?  Would 3ds max 2021 run on a virtual Maschine well?

Two things:

1) Wine is not an emulator.  (That's literally what WINE stands for.)

2) 3dsmax can run on virtual machines, yes.  They must be properly configured.
