I had a BBS I was playing with back in 1994 runing T.A.G. (2.6d I think).  I
later found the floppies a few years back and restored it.  This was a real
pain in the neck because I used 5.25" floppies and backed up with DOS 6.0
which, if anyone recalls, used a compression algorithm which was incompatible
with later versions (except maybe 6.22?) because of that whole Stacker
nonsense.

Anyway, I restored it and didn't have any problems running it under DOSBox. 
There were, however, some issues with the RTC emulation which really screwed
with it, but it was just a change in the DOSBOX.conf file which resolved
this.

As for DOSEMu, I had experminted with a RemoteAccess BBS (for grins and
giggles) and was able to configure telnetd and DOSEmu to properly establish
it over my LAN.  Troubleshooting it was a real pain in the neck though since
I essentially disabled DOSEmu's console and routed serial port output to the
pty.  I may or may not have used DOSEMu's FOSSIL driver.

In other words, I don't see why not :)
