Thunderbolt Card expansion for MSI B550M + RYZEN7 5800X.

I am a music producer and recently got a hardware from Universal Audio called "Apollo Twin X"  which uses Thunderbolt 3 for connection. But my current setup has no Thunderbolt jacks? Can I add extra card for using the device with my existing motherboard and processor and will it support such connection through PCIE_2 or PCIE_3 within my motherboard?

My setup:

MSI B550M PRO-DASH

AMD RYZEN 7 5800X

Power: GIGABYTE P650B

Saw this on Amazon. Someone in the Q&A section said they're also using the software you're trying to use, but you need to short a couple pins. So, it appears this PCIe card works. Hope this helps, @Yugen
