If I practiced enough or got the right type of training, would I technically be able to sing well like some of our greatest singers? Is there an anatomical difference in their vocals cords that differentiates singers from people who cant sing?

It’s like anything. There’s natural ability along with practice. How much you have/do of both will affect how good you are.

Yes! For the most part.
Some people are tone deaf or unable to keep a beat, this minority will see mixed results, but 99% of people can learn to sing very well.
Talent does matter, but most of singing is skill.
All voices have unique qualities that may make them unique in some way. Just like instruments, different voices have different ranges and different feels to their sound. Some are more easy to handle and naturally pleasing while others require more work, but just like instruments, how you use it is the most important aspect.
I am a pretty good singer, if someone stole my voice to sing, they would be unable to sing as well as I do, because it was all skill and practice.

I’m not tone deaf and learned to play the piano with moderate competency. But I cannot sing a note. I did try choir and lessons for a short time with no perceptible results. I can hear the notes and follow a tune but can’t make the tones myself. It’s depressing actually i am very ashamed of it. There are so many situations where it feels natural to want to sing (church, holidays, when my kids were very small and might have wanted lullabies or something) but i just can’t do it. Kind of sad but what can you do.
I think it’s fair to say that anyone can get better with practice but not everyone can be truly great.
As with any other physical ability, some people have natural or physical advantages.
Can anyone technically be able to shoot a basketball well?
Yes.
Will there still be variance in ability even among people who have dedicated equal time and effort with the same quality of training?
Yes.
It’s not nature OR nurture. It’s nature AND nurture.

There are technical aspects to singing that pretty much anyone with the dedication, and will, can learn.
The real difficulty in singing is getting over the feeling of looking stupid or goofy in front of people while doing it. That’s if performing is a concern.
