Have you checked your build sheet? Replace the X’s with your vin. If you didn’t buy the truck brand new and even if you did. Sometimes you find some neat stuff here.

That front cooler should have two sets of hoses running to it, one is the A/C condenser on the bottom, the upper section is the trans cooler. Follow the lines from the upper section back and you'll reach the trans.

I did not buy the truck new.
I did buy a trans cooler and was about to install it. Then I saw that front cooler. And yes it has 2 hoses from the ac, and 2 from the trans.
So, I guess my question now is. Can I Install the cooler I bought, or do I not need it.

It's standard equipment on the 4th gen Ram to have a trans cooler and that cooler is more than capable of handling the trans cooling even for towing loads through the mountains so it's not really necessary to add a second cooler. If you're seeing temps that concern you then you possibly have blocks in the cooler, your fluid needs to be changed, or you're running low.
