In the mid 1990s I copied the Tru64 shared libraries and some other things from one of the universities Tru64 machines onto an Alpha running Linux in my office. With a very small amount of hacking around and configuring I got Mozilla and maybe a few other things to run.
Other than showing everyone who came into my office and running around campus extoling the virtues of Linux there was absolutely no point. If you need to run Linux just run it... Its ported to everything these including probably your toaster and a I've spent more on Lunch than the cost of a Raspberry Pi.

As far as I could see, it was not possible to run DOS and Linux software concurrently. I never tried that, believe DR-DOS has now fallen into desuetude. I remember there was a DR-DOS 8 that used GPL parts from FreeDOS, but that had to be withdrawn from the market due to legal challenges, using open-source GPL parts in a closed-source system.
