You have a microphone with a 1/4 connector, and you'd like to plug it into an XLR socket, via a converter, right?
If this is the case then yes, it will work.
I take it the mic is hardwired?

My Firefly only accepts 1/4 male and my mics are xlr. I bought a
professional quality adaptor to change an input on my Firefly into a xlr when
I need to, to mic my flute part since the other tracks will be
put down using Cubase AI4. I hope that explains it a better way.
I would like a response after I reworded it more clearly.Thanks!

Ah yeah, i see.
No. That interface does not have microphone preamplifiers built in, so no matter what adapters or connectors you use, you wont get a good result.
If your microphone happens to be a condenser microphone, then you won't get any result at all.
What you need is
A new interface with preamps, or
A standalone preamp with line level output, or
A little mixer, which has at least one mic preamp, and line outputs.
