Men do not have a vagina, so they cannot use tampons for their intended purpose. (i.e. - to put inot your vagina when you have your period, so as to stop the bleeding from leaking out of your body.) If they wished to use them for other purposes, though I'm not really sure what they would be, then men could in fact use tampons. This might not be medically safe or good for the man's health, however, so I would not recommend it.

Yes, men can use tampons if the men have vaginas and menstruate.

Trans men may still have female reproductive systems and they may not use hormonal treatments that would shut down their menstrual cycles, so they may still need to use menstrual products like tampons. Tampons can be used to plug wounds or tampons can be inserted into the nostril to help nose bleeds, which is another use that men could have for tampons.
