Yes except that CentOS is not supported by Oracle and if push comes to
shove, Oracle Support can (and will) say that you have an unsupported
setup and refuse to provide any further help.
For testing now I use a base OEL install (just love the
oracle-validated package). For production I would only ever advise
using a supported platform. Compared to the amount of money you pay
for Oracle database license and support, I would imagine that the cost
of the enterprise OS is relatively inexpensive.
