Yes, I had the GM installed on an 08 black macbook with 4 GB of RAM and it worked fine. You miss out on the gestures but everything should be smooth sailing if I remember. I got a new computer in between so I can't tell you about performance, but it looked fine when I did it. Upgrade your RAM even if you don't get Lion, you'll thank yourself later.
