Yes, but you must have a COM port! Do you have one?

I'm not convinced that you can connect a programmer with a com port via a USB adapter. If you can run your old computer, it's best to do this simple JDM programmer yourself. It works through a com port and the parts for it are not expensive.

I don't think usb adapter will work, you need more than 7.5V(-7.5V). Must use old computer com. http://www.hamradio.in/circuits/feng.php

Welcome to the land of alternatives for pricey things.
Here is another solution - Extra PIC+AVR JDM programmer. I build this programmer last year and apply some modifications, work fine for me.
This circuit designed in 2006, originated somewhere in deep eastern Europe.
I recomend PICpgm software.
