It would be absolutely fine, yes. 

Some people might argue it's over-specified for the job — e.g. you can
run LMS on a Pi 3b+ with 1GB RAM, which is obviously a bit cheaper  —
but the extra processing power speeds up scanning, especially if you
have a large library. 

And the extra power & RAM is also handy should you want to use the Pi as
a more general media server (e.g. streaming video via DLNA)

(Fwiw, I used to run LMS on a Pi 3b+ with 1GB RAM, and now use a Pi 4
with 4GB.)

Have fun putting your new system together — this is a terrific forum for
getting all the help, support and encouragement you might need.



Duet x 3, via various hi-fi. LMS on Raspberry Pi OS (Debian 10) on a
Pi4.
