Yes, you can, we do this all the time for SKYRiX RPM packages. But: you 
usually need to build the packages on the oldest system available [we do 
on SuSE Linux 6.2] ;-)
The more recent the build system, the higher the probability that the 
result is not compatible (at least our experience).

BTW: I've build several GNUstep RPM packages, available here:

At least on SuSE 8.1 I get a working GNUstep system using these packages 
in about 5 minutes :-)
