Build, sure. Test, maybe.

I build midlets using ant & Sun J2ME Wireless Toolkit 2.0 for Linux (I 
intended to make a port out of it, but I haven't found the time, yet). What 
you actually need is the archive that contains the MIDP classes and the 
preverifier, a linux binary that works under the linux emulation layer 
(actually the only linux binary in the toolkit that works). You can use the 
Nokia Developer's kit as well. 

For testing you need to be able to run the emulators, but I haven't had any 
success yet.

Cheers,
