If I am not mistaken, Alacritty does [1]. I believe iTerm2 and Kitty support 24 bit color too.

The Terminal app in macOS Tahoe supports 24 bit color.

When you say Terminal app, do you really mean shell commands? i.e. do you want to run something in Terminal.app that will demonstrate the expanded colour range?

Try btop, a resource monitor with true colour support and 37 builtin themes.

Yes, I mean programs I can run in Apple's Terminal app on macOS Tahoe that would use the new 24 bit color feature.
