No. The DirecTV lnb is circular polarization.  You'll need a linear lnb.
The 18" dish will not work either. You'll need at least a 31 inch dish.
Sorry for the bad news....  here are a couple of sites where I buy sat gear

  Subject: [TVRO] Will my existing lnb and 18" dish work for free to air sats?


  I have a Kworld PCI satelite receiver card inside the pc and was 
  wondering if my existing 18" dish and lnb for direct tv will be able 
  to see anything at all.

  I was told that the lnb may not work. I know the dish is not the ideal 
  size but want to see if I can see any Ku feeds at all before investing 
  in a new dish and lnb.
