There is now way to tell, unless you tell us what lens you are talking about. I have old Nikon lenses that are not auto-focus and they work just fine on all my DSLR’s

Yes it will work with Nikon DSLR
AF and AF-D will mount, meter but not autofocus on the D40 and D60. They will autofocus on other Nikon DSLRs
AF-S and AF-I will mount meter and autofocus on all Nikon DSLR
AI and AI-S lenses vary in what they will do greatly with the camera. On the D100, D80, D70, D70s, D60, D40, D40 X will mount and function to take photos only in Manual mode and the meter will not work. They will not autofocus on any DSLR

If you’re meaning a Nikon DSLR than yes, It will fit, but it most likely won’t autofocus, depending on what your consider ‘ old ‘

Generally, you will get some functionality from them. Exactly how much depends on what lens you’re going to use with what camera. Post these details and people can better help you.
