It can sort of work, if you use the 5V and Ground pins on the 9 J1 (the 9 pin USB Header) I just put one on since it seems I was getting some thermal issues during testing. The blue PWM pin is not used, but the fan is pretty much silent even at full speed.
I am getting some 12V fans to replace the one on the heatsink, but I figured that part is good enough to start testing.
I tested this and it works great. It brought down the CM4 temp about 25°C. Great fit and easy to install. Plugged it right into the first +12V fan connection.
Hello @Geo Wilson Lagran, that will not work. We supply +12V for fans and that fan is +5V. We don't have a recommendation for a CPU fan as we typically just use case fans, which have been sufficient. If you find one you like, feel free to post it here to share with others.

Hope this helps.
Thanks, also please check your email.
I have not tested this, but it is +12V and specifically for a CM4 module: https://smile.amazon.com/Dedicated-Cooling-Raspberry-Adjustable-Convenient/dp/B0B3F63DGD/ref=sr_1_3
I'll go ahead and order one for testing here.
