Absolutely. Instiki.org is running on MySQL now, I also use it in 
development.

Just change config/database.yml to connect to MySQL instead of SQLite 
(there are examples in the config/database.yml itself). Then run 
migration (rake environment RAILS_ENV=production migrate).

Rails also supports a number of other databases (Postgres, Oracle, 
SQLServer and even DB/2). Although I have never tried, it may be 
possible to deploy Instiki against one of those other databases. By the 
way, if somebody tries, please tell us about the outcome.
