I don't know; never tried.  However, I would be surprised if it would not
work.  LRP is more of a toolbox approach than a one-size-fits-all solution.
(That also makes it a little harder to configure; I had to actually read
the docs (gasp!) to decide how to edit the configs and what drivers to
include.)  Check out "http://www.linuxrouter.org/" for more, specifically
"http://beta.linuxrouter.org/faq/LRP-FAQ-6.html#ss6.10".
