Yes, it  should work without any problems.

Why do you need a floppy image with PXE?
To boot with all modules you need to use the images available in
suse/images/boot on the first CD.

There are different way howto use PXE. You can use PXELINUX from the
syslinux package or use etherboot. Syslinux has some good information on
how to setup the server. After PXE is setup use the kernel image 'linux'
and the initrd file from the directory mentioned above.
