403b PLUS traditional IRA?

Hi - I changed jobs in September 2024 and since then I have a work sponsored 403b plan.  Can I still contribute $8000 (over 50 yrs old) to an IRA this year regardless of my 403b contributions? 

 

I am not expecting a deduction in my taxes should I contribute to an IRA. I just want to know whether i can do this additional contribution without penalties etc.

Thanks!
