Not without substantial development work (I'd bet more than simply putting NAT on Plan 9). Once you get Plan 9's /net on the linux box, nothing's going to know what to do with it. The existing p9p code won't use it directly, nor will iptables know how to send packets there. If you want

the composite video works and there are several cheap (in all senses of the word) LCD displays. the adafruit device is not supported, but would be interesting for its form/fit and the touch input. if you're inclined to do the work, this fork of the 9pi might be a good start.
