Sure, under wine, its does work, but I will say this, it isnt an easy process to get them to work.Every program is different and will require some trial and error tweaks to wine.

try wine.org or winex.org.............I think those URL's are good.

If you're not into paying for WineX or you don't know how to check it out from CVS, you can try using this GetWineX script. I've used it before with Fedora and it works great.
