If the old device has a current rating of 20A per pole. is a 2 pole device and the 24vac source has capacity to provide amps required by replacement coil, the suggested replacement should work electrically.

You old contactor appears to be single pole 25 amp. That Amazon one is 40 amp two pole so should be fine. The main terminals are a different style, though.

If you want to be anal then search for the same part. I can't read the full part number from your picture but might be this one: https://www.amazon.com/Intertherm-Re.../dp/B00DZP1QW8

Based on your location..... your unit could have a crankcase heater in which case stay with a single switching pole contactor like Astuff linked to.
