Verdict: No
No. Acronis True Image installs on Windows, Mac, Android and iPhone, and not on Linux. Rescuezilla covers whole-disk imaging and Deja Dup covers everyday file backups, both free.
Acronis lists True Image for 64-bit Windows 10 and 11, recent macOS versions, iOS and Android. Linux is not a supported system to install it on. It can read Linux file systems when imaging a drive from a rescue stick, but that is not the same as running on your Linux machine.
The job splits in two on Linux. For whole-disk images, the kind you restore after a drive dies, Rescuezilla is the closest match. You write it to a USB stick, start the computer from it, and get a plain window with backup, restore and clone buttons. It works on a machine that will not start, and it handles Windows drives as well as Linux ones.
For everyday file backups, Deja Dup or Pika Backup runs in the background to a second drive and lets you pick a single file out of last month's backup. That is what most people were really using True Image for, and it is the part Rescuezilla does not do.
Two things to sort out before you switch. Acronis Cloud storage is part of the subscription, so download anything you keep only there. And images you made with True Image will not restore onto Linux, so if you need them, keep a Windows machine or a True Image rescue stick until you are sure you do not.
For whole-disk images. Runs from a USB stick rather than the desktop, and there is no scheduling, so each backup is something you sit down and do.
Your files: It cannot restore an Acronis backup file. Anything you want to keep needs restoring while you still have Windows.
For everyday file backups on a schedule, which is what most people used True Image for day to day.
For rolling the system back after a bad update, the way you might have used a True Image image as a safety net.
One stubborn program doesn't have to decide the whole question. You can keep Windows on the same PC and restart into it only when you need Acronis True Image. Everything else you do can move.
