Can a Power Mac 8500/180 use a LCD monitor?

A friend has a Power Macintosh 8500/180 (yes a bit of a classic from the mid-90s!) and wishes to upgrade the monitor from the huge CRT it is now using to LCD.

"Based on this advice my friend bought a second hand multisync monitor from an auction site with a native resolution that matched the output of the graphics mode he was working in. The adapter successfully enabled the connection to the DB15 port. Thankfully no drivers were required.
Unfortunately I'm not in a position to check the quality of picture, or more details of setup since I am not located nearby."
