It may be possible with WINE, the Windows campatibility program, but Adobe makes a Linux version of Acrobat reader, and xpdf is free, open-source, and has worked with every pdf I've ever tried, so there's no reason to try to use the Windows version of Acrobat reader. You probably already have xpdf (or possibly gpdf, which isn't quite as compatible as xpdf) installed.
