Can't see any reason why not. Getting into video calls is where you start needing a decent connection.

System requirements
PC running Windows 2000, XP or Vista. (Windows 2000 users require DirectX 9.0 for video calls).
Internet connection (broadband is best, GPRS is not supported for voice calls, and results may vary on a satellite connection).
Speakers and microphone – built-in or separate.
For voice and video calls we recommend a computer with at least a 1GHz processor, 256 MB RAM and of course a webcam.
For High Quality Video calls you will need a high quality video webcam and software, a dual-core processor computer and a fast broadband connection (384 kbps).
Technical details
Version 3.8.0.188 File size 21 MB. Official release. Release date: November 19, 2008. File name: SkypeSetup.exe
