I have recently bought a domain thinking that I will be able to use my hosting on DigitalOcean. Can I do that??

Yes you can.
You will need to point your domain at DigitalOceans nameservers OR just a A-Record to the server’s IP. If you choose to just want to use your domain with DO’s nameservers just change the nameservers within GoDaddy to ns1.digitalocean.com, ns2.digitalocean.com, and ns3.digitalocean.com and then go in your DigitalOcean panel and DNS at the top and add your domain.
