Yes.

I'd make sure that you are specifying IRQs that are free in
/etc/pccard.conf if you are using ISA interrupts.  Make sure that the
address range for I/O ports you specify is not used by other devices.
Driver allocation failure usually means that we couldn't reserve the
resources for this device.

I've used this card recently on -current, but not on -stable or with
OLDCARD.
