If the program uses a Windows system driver (.sys), no.  Linux does not 
allow users to run this type of driver.

If the program accesses the drive, maybe.  Run the lsusb program when 
you insert the drive and see what Linux is reporting as the drive.  
Since the drive is 'raw' it should not have a drive letter.  This is why 
I wrote the first part of my comment.
