Line spinner using css animation

Is there any way to add line spinner (from spin.js - https://spin.js.org) using plain css animation without using javascript (example: https://www.w3schools.com/howto/howto_css_loader.asp)?

For simpliest understanding, here is code snippet:

/**
 * (C)Leanest CSS spinner ever
 */

@keyframes spin {
	to { transform: rotate(1turn); }
}

.progress {
	position: relative;
	display: inline-block;
	width: 5em;
	height: 5em;
	margin: 0 .5em;
	font-size: 12px;
	text-indent: 999em;
	overflow: hidden;
	animation: spin 1s infinite steps(8);
}

.small.progress {
	font-size: 6px;
}

.large.progress {
	font-size: 24px;
}

.progress:before,
.progress:after,
.progress > div:before,
.progress > div:after {
	content: '';
	position: absolute;
	top: 0;
	left: 2.25em; /* (container width - part width)/2  */
	width: .5em;
	height: 1.5em;
	border-radius: .2em;
	background: #eee;
	box-shadow: 0 3.5em #eee; /* container height - part height */
	transform-origin: 50% 2.5em; /* container height / 2 */
}

.progress:before {
	background: #555;
}

.progress:after {
	transform: rotate(-45deg);
	background: #777;
}

.progress > div:before {
	transform: rotate(-90deg);
	background: #999;
}

.progress > div:after {
	transform: rotate(-135deg);
	background: #bbb;
}
