No.
Your old RAM is DDR3 which is 240pin. Your new motherboard supports DDR4 which is 288pin, the DDR3 ram physically will NOT fit into the RAM slots on your new motherboard.
The motherboard only has 2 RAM slots anyways which will be taken up by your 2x4GB DDR4, you will not be able to expand anymore unless you get 2x8GB DDR4.

I think he may have purchased a pre-built. Fallen for the scams!
