My previous emails were all in Local Folders, including many sub-folders that I've created.

Today I've migrated all our company email to Google Suites.

I had to create a new account on Thunderbird.

I would like to change my Local Folders so that it uses the new email settings, so I can stay within Local Folders. Is this possible?

Thank you!

I'm not sure that (because of my low English knowledge) understand your question correctly, but I think that you can define it under account-settings in the Copies&Folders subdialog. Additionally in the Junk subdialog

Thanks but I don't think that helps...?

Your Google account is set up as IMAP, which means the messages are stored on the IMAP server. If you want a copy stored in Local Folders, create a filter(s) that copies messages from the Inbox to a subfolder of Local Folders. Or, set up the account as POP if you don't need IMAP synchronization.
