If Linux is installed in a virtual environment on the mac can I open apps that big sur blocks

virtualization

I'm trying open this application: http://www1.icsi.berkeley.edu/~lucag/ (It's a research tool might might be great for my work so I really want to access it).

When I try and open the app I get the message: "You do not have permission to open the application "ECGWorkbench'. Contact your computer or network administrator for assistance."

If I installed Linux in a virtual environment on my mac could I then open the the Linux version of the app?

The answer would be yes from an OS view, as the Linux VM would be a self contained system. However, beware of ports blocked by your proxy or any firewall filtering however, as the application could be denied access to external resources by the network your host machine is on.
