Yes, assuming you have sufficient hardware documentation (like
schematics) as well.

623? I guess you mean 823? Yes, this is easy to find out. But it will
not help you much. You will still have to port U-Boot to *your*
board. Forget about the idea that two boards might be "similar
enough" to clone one from the other. They aren't.
You need to understand both the hardware and U-Boot, or you will
fail.
And BTW: I think your approach suffers from a serious mistake: to me
it makes little sense to use a MPC8xx based board as model for a
PXA270 target system; there are *huge* differences between these two
architectures.

I've already got a female to worry about. Her name is the Enterprise.
