Actually, the answer is yes, it will run, and yes it is easy to find.
The Nook for Tablets app won't run and is only found at the Google marketplace.

But Nook for android will.
Older versions for 2.0 and under are readily available at the Freeware Lovers website and run fine on firmware 2.0.5 and higher.
I'm running Nook version 2.5 right now. It's not as good as Coolreader or the Kindle app (all fonts look soft) but it runs, you can buy books, and you can sideload to it.

Lots of goodies there.
Including Kindle for android.
