You can’t use a non-WP template in a WP site – unless you modify it to work with whatever theme you are using. Are you familiar with WP, HTML and CSS?
Thanks WPyogi. I am a non-programer so can just try doing few modification and copy paste to the code reading few help docs. Any suggestions or help docs to accomplish the above?
I am looking at template in the following site

There really is no “one-size” or easy way to do what you are asking about. And you’d need to know quite a bit of coding…
If you’re after a particular layout or look, it would be easier to start with a theme that’s close and modify the theme.
Ok, I understand, will have to go bit by bit then. To start with – if I dont want to make any changes to the template, but just import the default template into Theme directory of the site in the cpanel? Would this work just to replicate the site?

If you want to just use a “static front page” you can do this.

Note that WordPress is a Content Management System. By using static webpages you are not fully utilising the Content Management System.
Thanks WPyogi and Andrew for the insights, it was useful learning.
