Of course it is.  GNU make is quite portable across UNIX implementations.

Remember that much of the work of writing and maintaining your
build system's makefiles is in the micro-shellscripts that constitute the
individual lines in the bodies of the targets.  Your scripting has to be
compatible across systems.  Running the same version of make everywhere
is a big plus, too.
