It's not quite clear what your question is, but I'll assume you want to
run DJGPP on DOS, and get executables that will be transferred to a
Linux box and be able to run there.
Answer to that is: "In principle, yes.". But not with stock DJGPP
tools. DJGPP makes DOS executables. Those can run on Linux only by
help of the 'dosemu' (or similar virtual machine systems). To get
native Linux executables, you either have to do the compilation on
Linux, too, or use a so-called cross-compiler. It might be possible
to build one on DOS, but don't hold your breath.
