It is if you're on SL as you just have to make sure Rosetta is installed first.

I ran CS2 when the first Intel Macs arrived and it was absolutely pants. Huge load on the system. Just having Photoshop and Illustrator open was enough to get the machine to alarming heat levels. 
 
Not to even mention the stability issues.

CS2 doesn't need activating (the activation servers for CS2 are no longer online) hence why they supplied the offline serial numbers. 
 
Basically - anyone call still download and install these CS2 products without issue, the only issue as such is whether you have a 'license' to use the software (which most people probably don't).
