Sure, as long as you run Windows (and possibly Linux) on your i5 instead of i5/OS. That’s what will understand them.

Two things (at least) stand in your way.

First, it’s probably illegal. Review your Microsoft licensing very carefully for references to Windows “Core” fonts.

Second, importation probably needs to be through the Create Font Resource (CRTFNTRSC) command. Review the [help] for that command to get a likely idea where the big obstacle comes in.
