Probably not. That's why you have a bracket in your front bumper.

To install the front license plate bracket on a Hyundai Santa Fe, first locate the mounting holes on the front of the vehicle where the bracket will attach. Align the bracket with these holes and securely fasten it using the provided screws or bolts. Make sure the bracket is level and properly positioned before tightening everything down. Finally, attach your license plate to the bracket using the appropriate fasteners.

I will be replacing one on a 2006 Pilot, and I'm not sure if this will work the same, but it requires you to remove the old hardware (if still attached), clip in the bracket on the front of the bumper, and bolt in the two flat, horizontal attachments underneath the bumper.
Try dealer or E-Bay

On a 2001 Chrysler, the front license plate typically mounts on the front bumper. Look for pre-drilled holes or a designated bracket area on the bumper.

Not all vehicles come from the factory withe the front plate bracket installed. If you don't easily see it, then you will have to buy one from the dealer.
