Perhaps. There are a couple of things that can still go wrong.

The preferred partition scheme for Intel Macs is GUID and for PPC  
machines is Apple Partition Map. Because of this, it might work on one  
while not on the other.

For some reason, when you start out with a big Windows formatted  
drive, if you don't force the partition table to be rebuilt, but just  
change the partition type, Disk Utility will only give you about 10 GB  
of usable space.
