Probably. That amount of memory is low, so don't expect Windows to fly along at great speeds.
As for space requirements, the minimum amount of space required by Windows 98 Setup is 225MB. A full install of Windows 98 could use up as much as 400MB of hard disk space. Setup may also require another 45-50MB for the backup copies of your system files, and Windows 98 will need 20MB or 30MB for its dynamic swap file. So don't expect to load a bunch of programs on the same drive - a second drive for additional storage would be nice (they're dirt-cheap, too).
