I don't see why not - I ran Win95 in Virtual PC (a commercial PC emulator for
macs, like Bochs) on a old 132mhz PowerMac and it ran in a slow but
semi-usable fashion. The slowest part was the graphics, which wasn't help by the
crappy graphic card. On today's superfast PCs it should be possible to do it
much faster.
