        Hi,
it is possible, but it requires manual editing of the corresponding
.source file under ~/.config/evolution/sources/ to set the
[Authentication] "Method" to "Google" (quotes for clarity only).

What you really need is a newer Evolution, which does this on its own,
because the OAuth2 process changed on the Google side as well, which
requires code changes, not only data changes. If your distro doesn't
provide any newer version and you cannot upgrade to a newer version of
your distro, which provides latest Evolution (and all other software),
then you can try to install Evolution as a Flatpak, from
https://flathub.org . It has its limitations, but it allows you to run
the latest software under ancient distros.

        Bye,
