Not directly. There is a home page for MusiXTeX and PMX at:

  http://icking-music-archive.org/

You'll find there a pointer to an excellent mailing list and a lot of
further information.

Download the Fortran source from:

 http://icking-music-archive.org/software/indexmt6.html

The link is labeled "Linux tarball".

      tar -xvzf pmx_2.5.1.orig.tar.gz
      cd pmx-2.5.1/
      make   (This creates the documentation)
      cd src

To create teh binary change in  Makefile the lines beginning with
"pmxab:" and "scor2prt:"

 ----------------------------------
pmxab: pmxab.for
        cp pmxab.for pmxab.f
        f2c pmxab.f
        gcc pmxab.c -o pmxab -lf2c -lm

scor2prt: scor2prt.for
        cp scor2prt.for scor2prt.f
        f2c scor2prt.f
        gcc scor2prt.c -o scor2prt -lf2c -lm
 ----------------------------------

Then:

        make
        cp pmx pmxab scor2prt /usr/local/bin/pmx
        chmod 0755 /usr/local/bin/pmx /usr/local/bin/scor2prt /usr/local/bin/pmxab

Then copy:
        pmx-2.5.1/tex/pmx.tex to /usr/local/share/texmf/tex/pmx/pmx.tex


Then:
        texhash

Then create a test file "w1.pmx" with:

%---------------------------------------------------------%

   2    2      4      4        4      4        0      0
   1    1      20     0.07


bt
./
e43 d e f | g43 a f g | e43 d e f | g43 a f g /
c44 d e f | g44 a b c | c44 d e f | g44 a b c /
%---------------------------------------------------------%

Then:

        pmx w1.pmx
        xdvi w1.dvi

Voila !!!!
