Yes, but it would take a week or more to do it the "traditional" Gentoo
way. The R-Pi is too slow to compile its own software in a reasonable
amount of time. You can set up a cross-compiling build environment on
another machine, but that's not what you would normally do on a real
machine, and would only be relevant to low powered and embedded devices
like the Raspberry Pi.
