Probably, but I haven't done it. Most modern guides tell you to make a nandroid backup (via Clockwork) and copy the images somewhere safe. I haven't tried other loaders like magldr or RZ yet.
I think you'd have to ADB dump system/boot/cache, etc. etc., although I don't know if you get a usable update.zip that way. Also, enTourage messed with root/adb permissions in ermine. See
jcase's post on androidpolice about it. He found the Dingo debug password, and then ermine locked it, and there was a bunch of nitty whining on the edge forums and jcase dropped all development on the device. Read the comments. It's quite sad.
ptsenter claims to be using adb successfully on ermine, so maybe he has some input. I don't know if he is successfully pushing.
I do kinda have to be long-winded. I was very bored when I made that first post. :P
