Nope. The Lorentz Transformation is to transform measurements of events in one frame to another frame, as Mikko told you.

Since relativity does not involve an ether, applying the Lorentz
Transformation in this context is nonsensical.

The Lorentz Transformation says nothing about an ether,it is simply a transformation of events from one coordinate system to another.
You apparently failed Relativity 101. No wonder you are confused.
