I think so. Check:
Linux Hardware Compatibility HOWTO (http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/Hardware-HOWTO/)

What chip does that use? If you can tell me that, I might be able to tell you.

I've never heard of that soundcard.

I would suggest you try some Google for Linux (see my sig) for your soundcard to see if it is indeed supported and what modules it uses.
