Almost... Digital Editions only handles OPF 2.0, so you need to update the OPF from 1.0.x to 2.0. You also need a 'META-INF/container.xml' file which points to where in the ZIP file the OPF file is and a 'mimetype' file (as the first file in the archive, uncompressed) containing the EPUB mimetype. To be actually compliant with the spec, all the HTML content also needs to be valid XHTML, but none of the currently-available reader apps are actually enforcing that so you should be fine. (Unfortunately -- doomed we are again to another 10 years of tag soup.)
