Yes, you can use the MacBook's installer just fine. It's only locked as to the Mac it will install from, not the drive it will install to. Start the G4 up in Target Disk Mode, boot the MacBook from the installer, and choose the G4's HD to install to. I've done it before, it works fine. No need for XPostFacto or Open Firmware modifications.
