Kind regards,
For ASCOM, no. Most of ASCOM was compile in C and .Net. I'm not aware of any code ports to Linux. You could potentially use WINE (Windows Emulator) - http://www.faqs.org/faqs/windows-emulation/wine-faq/ but there are no guarantees.

On the linux platform, I suggest you check out Audela - http://software.audela.free.fr/english.htm. I have no experience with WINE or Audela, but plenty with ASCOM so can't tell you much more.

Hope this helps
