Apparently _not_, I'm afraid.  There are quite a few people who've tried,
but they can't get past the copy protection on the CD.  For a similarly
protected CD, I was able to just install into my Windows partition, and
copy the entire directory from C:\Program Files\ over to my Ubuntu
partition, but I don't think that's going  to work for The Sims 2.
