If it is an EF mount lens then the answer is yes.

There is no adapter to fit an RF lens to an EF mount camera. There are adapters to fit EF lenses to RF mount bodies.

Greetings,

No, an RF lens cannot be adapted to an EF mount camera. Sorry 🙁

What is a good body to use with the rf lenses?

Any RF body. Are you looking to match your T6i in RF mount or are you looking to upgrade camera features? What is your budget?

It sounds like you inadvertently purchased an RF 35mm f/1.8 macro lens. It is not a lens most folks would consider for portrait photography.

Are you satisfied with your T6i? If so, consider a 50mm or 85mm EF lens.

A R100 is an RF body that would be reasonably equivalent to the T6i (crop sensor enthusiast camera). Still wouldn’t recommend the 35mm for portraits.

An RF lens cannot be used or adapted to an EF/EF-S mount camera.

You can certainly get an EF or EF-S mount lens for the T6i for less money than buying an RF body just to use a mistakenly-bought lens. Can you return the RF lens?
