Quick answer: no, not to any useful degree.
Long answer: Objective-C is just a standard language, and GCC compiles it just fine. But when most people talk about Objective-C, they are including Apple’s (formerly NEXTstep) libraries, as the bare language isn’t too useful without them. There are projects around to let you use these libraries on non-Mac systems, for example GNUstep, but from my experience they are immature and more trouble than they are worth. I haven’t looked recently, but I wouldn’t spend too much effort trying to get it to work.
