Yep you should be able to.  First of all add the Lightning plugin to 
Thunderbird, then there is another plugin (can't remember the name of it 
off the top of my head) which will allow Lightning to syncronise with 
Google Calendar.

Then setup Evolution to use the Google Calendar (you should be able to 
do it without running the wizard, IIRC you don't have to setup an e-mail 
account).

Then you should get notifications in both Lightning and on the 
notifications app.

I do this, well I have got Lightning on the wife's PC syncing with my 
Google calendar and I've got my laptop running Ubuntu syncing with my 
Google calendar, and my Nokia phone too so I've got no excuse to miss 
appointments now.
