Short answer NO, a 370 chipset does not support zen 3. Even if you could get the bios to somehow work, you would end up doing catastrophic damage. You will have to upgrade your board to something like a ASUS ROG X570 Crosshair VIII Hero. If you are using your rig for gaming, personally I would go for a Ryzen 5 5600x its less than half the price of a AMD 9 5950X and only 5-8% less FPS and the 5600x uses only half the power 65w vs 105w.

I did some research and found this posting form PCworld "5 Reasons Why You Should Upgrade To Ryzen 5000 On An X370 Or B350 Motherboard"
So what kind catastrophic damage are you speaking of when you say the 370 does not support Zen3?

More than likely you would blow the VRMs out, I don't understand why you would want to put a $750 CPU on a $90 budget MB

In addition to these exciting new processor releases, AMD announced it is extending support for Ryzen 5000 Series processors on AMD 300 Series chipsets, including all the new desktop processors announced today. The latest AMD Ryzen 5000 Series processors will be supported on AMD X370, B350 and A320 chipsets, offering a seamless upgrade path to “Zen 3” performance. Selective BETA BIOS updates are expected to become available in April.
