Yes, if Google Calendar is already on your Mac. NotchStar has no Google sign in of its own. It reads calendars through macOS, so any Google account added to your Mac with Calendars switched on can show its events in the notch.

How to check

Open the Calendar app on your Mac. If your Google events are listed there, NotchStar can read them.
If they are not, add the Google account in System Settings under Internet Accounts and switch on Calendars for it. Menu names can differ between macOS versions.
Give NotchStar calendar access if you have not already.

What you should see

Events from today and tomorrow that have not ended yet, in the colour of their calendar. The full rules are on which events show.

Limits

It is read only. You cannot accept an invite or create an event from the notch.
Sync speed depends on macOS and Google, not NotchStar.
NotchStar does not copy your calendar anywhere. Events are read on your Mac.

If the account is on your Mac and the list is still empty, go to why no events show. The tool is described on the Calendar and Reminders page.
