SharePoint site which developed using SharePoint Designer can it be use in SharePoint online ?
If I have existing SharePoint site which developed using SharePoint Designer can it be use for SharePoint Online ? and how i can find any reference
Can you add a little more context to this question please? What are you looking to migrate? Customisations, workflows, masterpages and so on? Different types of SPD customisations might be portable.
SharePoint Designer as a product can be used with SharePoint Online sites as well as those on premises if they're both in Classic. Some elements of Modern SharePoint I suspect (the underlying lists and libraries) might be backwards compatible.
If you're using SharePoint Classic, you might be able to take an STP of the site and utilise it as a sub-site within an SPO site, which would still need modifications.

Thank you for information that help me alot about this problem
I just want to know is it posible to migrate Customisations, workflows, masterpages and How to do itAlice47 in modern SharePoint Online you don't have masterpages. And workflows won't migrate, they'll need to be re-built with Power Automate. And I don't believe customisations will migrate either as Microsoft have been very clear that with the exeption of the SPFx framework additions they don't want sites to be customised.
