I would generally say yes, however without knowing exactly what hardware the machine has, there is no way of 
knowing whether everything will work properly out of the box without any extra effort. So the best I can 
suggest is that you try using Ubuntu 12.04 on the system and see how things go.

Assuming you know how to boot from a CD or USB drive, you boot the Ubuntu 12.04 install image, and wait till 
you hear a sound like bongo drums. Once you do so, wait a second or so, then press the Control + S keys, to 
activate the Orca screen reader, and proceed with the install of Ubuntu.
