You can, but need to make sure your "workstation" motherboard and CPU support it in the first place.

If you intend to build a professional workstation, don't waste it on consumer motherboard. I only recommend server board from (1st choice) Supermicro, Asrock Rack, Tyan and Asus workstation motherboard.​

That's Registered ECC RAM, you need proper server/high end workstation hardware (Epyc/TR Pro) for it.

As Mach said, that is RDIMM. You can only use it in systems which indicates support for it. Consumer desktops only support UDIMM and SODIMM for laptops.
