Comparing specs from the web, the silent model GRS sells:
delivers 2.15 CFM at 114 PSI.

The one your asked about on Amazon:
6.5 CFM // 120 PSIG

I see no reason why it won't work.

The oilless "silent" air compressors are somewhere in-between the loudness of a normal compressor and a sil or june air. My shop ordered a couple of oil-less silent compressors looking to save money and to get a compressor that would demand less maintenance. Turns out they are still pretty loud, though not deafening like normal compressor.

Just a heads up for you.

I have one that I'm testing and it's definitely not silent, but comfortable enough to work next to.

My big compressor from the farm died the other day. I suspect my wife did something because she disliked the noise so much. I purchased a GMC syclone 6310. Runs at 60 decibels. $250. I don't know anything about dependability but have my fingers crossed.
