Sadly no. There were emus like PearPC that ran on top of linux, PPC
10.2 Mac OS X. There was a project alled Linrabbit what was suppose to
be the mac os wine, but I hasn't see anything about in years.
VirtualBox, Parrellels, and VMWare will run mac os x server, but if
you are going that route, by mac mini.

SheepSaver is another emu, but it only runs Classic MacOS 9.0, but
you have to find a mac rom to use, and disc to install from.
