I do not see why not. If the cables fit why not.  You should still be able
to have the printer as a windows share, so it works like it does now.

It will be interesting(?) to figure out what WSCST to use.  You will have
to see it the printer is configed for an emulation mode:

Looking here:

Standard Emulations
Tally Line Matrix Printer, Tally Dot Matrix Printer, Printronix® P600 and
P6000,
HP 2564C, DEC® LG01, Epson® FX1180, Genicom® ANSI & IBM® Proprinter III XL

you can get a ethernet card for the printer, not sure if that would make
life easier or not.....
