Short answer no. Long answer "in theory" yes. I tried this [1] but gave up as building rocm + deps takes up to 6h :/ Official statement [2]

For anyone on Arch, there is a third-party repository called arch4edu[0] that provides up to date builds of ROCm and its dependencies. On my iGPU, OpenCL sometimes works, sometimes crashes. Even finding a list of supported hardware is close to impossible. The whole situation is just ridiculous and makes AMD look bad.

AMD doesn't actually care.

For them, GPGPU is a pro level feature not worth supporting on most customer GPUs. They are doing much more feature segmentation than NVIDIA ever did.
