The short answer is yes. Other vendors actually do that (*cough* INE *cough*). For the IPexpert topology I'm not sure if R5 is the right choice since its supposed to be connected to the frame switch. I've never done it, but I can't imagine connecting a router to itself would work as anticipated. I would maybe choose R1, R7, R8 or R9 since they don't have any connections to the Frame Relay network. R7, R8 and R9 already have serial connections going elsewhere, but that shouldn't be a problem.
