I don't think so - Vykor

From Wolfarm Research:

** Important notification for users of G5 Macintosh systems running OS X 10.4 **

At approximately 8 p.m. PDT on Monday, August 15, Apple began
automatic distribution of Apple Security Update 2005-007 for Mac
OS X 10.4.2 (Tiger).

Due to an error on the part of Apple, this update prevents any
64-bit-native application from running. In particular, this means
that Mathematica 5.2 will not run on any G5 system if it has
installed this Security Update.

... This problem was discovered by our testing procedures a few hours
ago, and Apple has now assured us that they have stopped
automatic distribution of Security Update 2005-007 at this time.
