Generally yes. There are some minor issues (like case sensitivity) which you should be aware of to create a truly portable database. But even if you ignore these issues it is easy enough (though maybe time consuming) to fix them later. Have a look at http://www.mysql.com/doc/en/Windows_vs_Unix.html which mentions all caveats, AFAICS.
