1. You cannot use it, as it isundefined; you even specify it in your own question! 2. You've already found a replacement, and again - you even specify it in your own question!

from @goodvibration in the comments :
web3.eth.accounts is deprecated.
That is true. in the newer version of web3.js web3.eth.getAccounts returns a promise, so that is why doing :
var accounts = web3.eth.getAccounts();
accounts[0];
will return undefined.
TLDR : use this code instead (if it works, didn't test) :
var accounts = await web3.eth.getAccounts();
accounts[0];

Use the code below to retrieve all the accounts
var accounts = web3.eth.getAccounts();
Use this code to reference a single account
var account0;
web3.eth.getAccounts().then(function(result){
account0 = result[0];
})
