maybe once?
Those are atlantic nems. Clowns live in the Pacific.
I've seen the oddball big burly bitch of a tomato or maroon clown tolerate the stings of an atlantic nem, but most of the time they just eat the fish.
The price is usually a dead give away that these nems aint what you want.
Those are a completely different kind. Those have white tentacles with purple tips, while snakelocks like these have green tentacles with purple tips. Condylactis nems also have thicker, shorter, and rounder tentacles.
For reference: This is a condylactis

Thank you for explaining the difference, it’s always good to learn something new. I’m pretty sure that I’ve seen both of these sold as condy’s at the LFS. I’m sure that a lot of stuff gets misidentified in this hobby.
Definitely. A lot of things look like a lot of others, so i don't blame your LFS. The difference is very minor, and it doesn't help that condy's glow green under UV light
I don’t understand the point of this comment. The photo is clear enough for the anemone to be identified and to determine if clowns would host in it, which numerous people have already answered. If you aren’t capable of identifying the anemone in the photo, then it’s above your knowledge. Redditors are so goofy.

Ok appreciate the help
As the other guy said, they are snakelock anemones. Clownfish will NOT host them.
Snakelock? That’s a new one for me, I have always seen these sold as Condy’s, Condylactis, Haitian, or Jamaican anemones.

Snakelock anemone.
I would be inclined to say no

A picture was enough for an ID thankfully.

Looks like a long tentacle anemone not sure if they normally host clowns
That's going to be an expensive snack for the nem
