Yes, so long as you have a Valid .desktop file, generated by WINE or created manually, you can place WINE apps in Unity launcher, it would be great if Unity could generate the required .desktop file and update it's Launcher depending on the current program WINE has opened, I mean at the moment it doesn't even grab the correct icon if you use the terminal to launch a WINE app, so a bit more work is needed on Unity's WINE integration.

Don't get me started on Unity's lack of ability to show uncategorized items (almost everything created with WINE), the do show up in the Unity Menu, but often they don't have a Title and they do not Launch anything if you click on them. I hope Unity and WINE learn to get along, especially before it's LTS release.
