Yes. MAME out-of-the-box supports more OSes and more architectures than it ever has, and there's a "NOASM=1" flag that should completely disable all CPU-specific code. At that point you just need a reasonable C++ compiler and SDL. I expect ARM to get explicit support in the future with both Windows 8 and major Linux distros promoting it to tier-1 support.
