Is it possible to track a Samsung phone with the IMEI number?

Hi, recently I lost my phone and was wondering if T-Mobile can track the location with the IMEI number. The phone is a Samsung Galaxy A53 5G. Thanks in advance.

    The IMEI isn't usually enough to track a device.  If there is no SIM in the device or one from a different carrier.  T-Mobile can't track a device that doesn't register on their network.  If the device is lost.  You can login to your my.t-mobile.com account and blacklist the device.  If the device is eventually found, you can always have it removed from the blacklist.  Blacklisting a device will prevent it from being used on any US and Canadian carrier.
