It costs nothing to give them a try but maybe on a computer that is not connected to the internet due to security issues.

If connected to the internet then, for security, consider using LibreOffice instead. It is free. LibreOffice ( Home | LibreOffice - Free Office Suite - Based on OpenOffice - Compatible with Microsoft ) has Writer (Word equivalent) and Calc (Excel equivalent).

LibreOffice is Office compatible but the tabbed user interface will take a bit of getting used to if you are coming from the menu based Office 2002 interface.

Office 2002 is not compatible with Windows 10. Although you may be able to get it to run on Windows 10, some features are liable to not be installed and those that are will reduce your system's security, making it more vulnerable to malicious attack.

Assumptions are dangerous. However LibreOffice is regularly updated.

You should be OK with LibreOffice. I have MS Office 2019 on my desktop and LibreOffice on my laptop and I use both so good luck.
