I'm sure it can, but it wouldn't do you much good if you wanted
OS/9 to be disk-file-system-compatible with TOS, which I doubt it is.
(Can somebody verify this?)

It also wouldn't do you much good if you still wanted
to run your TOS/GEM programs, unless someone went to all
the trouble of writing a TOS front end for OS/9 and ported
all of GEM, which I also doubt.
