I currently have 2 3-way switches controlling a light fixture in a room in my home. They are wired like the attached diagram. I recently purchased a ceiling fan for the room and I’m wondering if I’ll be able to use the required ceiling fan switch in place of one of the 3 way switches? Thanks!

No for two reasons, one it will not three way switch and two there is no neutral at the existing switches.

Two way light switch with 2 cores!
In addition to Brians post above you can get electronic impulse relays, so no thud as they switch in and out.

Can you do a sketch of the wires and their connections but @littlespark is probably correct.
