On the absolute lowest settings - maybe. But even then it would very likely stutter a lot and not have a fluid framerate. The built-in graphics are what's bottlenecking that system, with any, even just a mediocre, graphics card, it would work for sure (not on high settings though) but like this I have my doubts. Worth a try, but my prediction is that the result isn't very enjoyable.
