I don't see why not, as long as you can download the OTF or TTF, you should be able to embed it into an ebook and Sigil will display it.

The issue I see is it looks to only have Regular available, which means Italics/Bold/Bold+Italics will be missing, which is very important for ebooks.

Poking around on the site, I'm not sure if it's an actual Variable Font:

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/typ.../otvaroverview

If it is, then no... support for that is non-existent on most actual ereaders.
