Yep.  Doing it on my workstation at the office right now.

: Is it hard like NT4 is/was to dual boot, or easy like Win95/98?

None of those are hard.  Just tell lilo what to do...

boot=/dev/hda
map=/boot/map
install=/boot/boot.b
prompt
timeout=50
linear
default=linux

image=/boot/vmlinuz-2.2.14-5.0
        label=linux
        initrd=/boot/initrd-2.2.14-5.0.img
        read-only
        root=/dev/hdb6

other=/dev/hda1
        label=win
        table=/dev/hda

You'll have to add the "other" section after you're installed (that is if
you'd like to be able to boot windows).
