you're talking circa 2006 or older, I think it's doubtful.  On Fedora,
you can check the WOL status of your NIC using the ethtool utility,
e.g.

ethtool -A devname

See: http://linuxmanpages.net/manpages/fedora12/man8/ethtool.8.html

Otherwise, see
http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?95622-New-favorite-mobo for
info on a relatively low cost motherboard that supports WOL.
