Yes. Based on experience of using the 5400/180, same logic board

You need to follow the instructions for OldWorld machines and have
MacOS installed to chainload Linux, though - no direct booting.

The GeoPod modem you might have, and any video-in gear, isn't
supported though. But the graphics/sound are, as is networking if you
have it.
