Hello @SugengGod and welcome to the ST COMMUNITY 😊.

Yes, it should work perfectly. You should take care of the pins wiring refer to the pin decriptions:

Where did you get that photo from? oh yeah is there a complete tutorial or something without using the x cube module?

There are several Youtube tutorials on how to use the Xcube software. If you are going to use an STM32, that XCube stuff really is the way to go. it will be frustrating the first time you do it. But if you have the schematic of your board and a willingness to follow a tutoral, you can work through it. 

I was favorably impressed, but there is a learning curve. As a software guy, I worked my way through it. Does help if you have some hardware knowledge - or have a friend who does. 

My one difficulty was guessing incorrectly when I selected a pin. One really cannot guess that.
