...it probably depends on what image you want to run. Are you going
to bootstrap or trace an image by hand, or reuse one that already
exists?

...if you wanted to run a Smalltalk-80 image, i guess the answer would
be yes. do you have one?
for ideas you could also look at Ian Piumarta's Cola work [1], which
has a st-80 class library [2] and an example VM [3]. I haven't looked
at it for a while, but you see in the svn view a familiar looking
mini.image.
cheers,
Mike
