So, you can see modern MBT's have almost 10 times the armor protection of even the most heavily armored WWII tank. For instance, the RHA of a King Tiger circa 1945 (probably the most heavily armored tank of WWII) was approximately 180 (front of the turret) the RHAe for an M1A2 SEP Abrams is almost 1500 (front of turret with DU armor). I'm assuming you mean against the frontal armor of a modern MBT, and the short answer is, no, there aren't really any WWII tank cannons that could penetrate a modern MBT (with the possible exception of the 128mm PaK 44 L/55) armor protection these days is measured in terms of "Rolled Homogeneous Armour equivalency", or RHAe, and some of the measurements for modern armor are off the scale.
