I do not think so, unless your Linux is able to execute Windows
dlls.

Apparently, there are several ways to connect between Linux and
MS SQL Server:

  *  "SQLRelay" over FreeTDS (SQL server only, no Access)
  *  Dave Cole's Sybase DB-API implementation over FreeTDS
     (SQL server only, no Access)
  *  "tcpdb"
  *  commercial:
        mxODBC
	+ ODBC driver manager (iODBC, UnixODBC)
        + ODBC driver for your databases (Openlink, EasySoft)

Search mailing list archives and Google to find out details.
