Yes. I've done it (well - with Champion Server 1.2 and OS X Public Beta)
I had a partition for OS 9 and OS X Public Beta all within the 8 GB
limit.
I then had SuSE 6.4 and YDL 1.2.1 and LinuxPPC 1999 all installed beyond
the 8 GB limit - and used BootX to boot them.
It was a Rev B iMac - but the Rev B/C iMac are identical mobo (except
the Rec C/D didn't have the mezzanine connector)
